Salary Hike in 2024: Deloitte India projected that corporate executives in India may get an average salary increment of 9 per cent in 2024. In the report titled ‘Deloitte India Talent Outlook 2024’, it said that increments in 2024 will be better than pre-Covid pandemic levels in all sectors. The only exceptions will be information technology (IT) and business process outsourcing (BPOs) as per the report. The projection is lower than what Deloitte India had predicted in 2023 when it said that hike in salaries will be 9.2 per cent.
Deloitte India said that companies are likely to offer double-digit increments to junior management but “organisations may be stricter with their bell curves, making it harder to secure top ratings.”
