They ditched me in the hr round

One of the funded startups hiring for dev intern, just ditched me after discussing about the compensation/stipend on the final round.

I just asked for 45k/mo(negotiable upto 40) while my classmates are earning upto a lakh. Given that I'd worked previously in multiple places as well..

The worst part is they didn't even try to negotiate Do all companies do this?

Are your classmates getting 1L from the same company? Have you researched how much that company pays to interns?
