Depends on your role... If you are brain transplantation surgeon or a project leader for space x, then very low.

If you are a HR, then absurdly high, so high that you are being paid for your next 7 lives

My friend you are in the top 1% earners in this nation you can lead a happy and fulfilling life with this money. Why do you seek validation? You are doing great in life.

It's a good salary for 9.5 years of experience. But if you want to compare it with those 1% people who are above 50 LPA with less YOE then I am sorry you would never be able to feel happy how much you earn.

My father in law says - No matter what you do, someone will be earning more than you! What matters is - Are you struggling financually with the salary you are currently getting or have less work life balance? If answer is Yes, please switch.
