In a recent update<\/a> the employees of multinational companies in India are receiving flat or slightly lower hikes in their salaries for 2025.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"Indian<\/figure>\n\n\n\n

How Did This Happen?<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

This is said to be caused by the global economic uncertainty which is taking a toll on these firms, citing a Deloitte survey data as per the media report on January 11.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Coming to the average hike which is rolled out is in the range of 8.8 percent across these firms was around 9 percent during the previous year as per the media report.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Global Capability Centres run by these firms are handing out the biggest increments, the report said. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

The hikes given by GCCs, at 9.1 percent, are still lower than last, said the media report.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The salary projection has disappointed the employees as it is around a percent less for FY25 compared to the last year for most of the 100 companies surveyed,  as per the report.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Warning By Market Experts <\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Earlier, at the start of this month, IT major HCLTech rolled out partial wage hikes for junior employees for the October to December period.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

It was alarming that so many got increments between 1 and 2 percent.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

It appears that  HCLTech’s wage hike delays align with a broader trend in India’s IT sector as  many companies, including Infosys, have deferred or reduced salary revisions due to global economic uncertainties.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

In the meantime, the young professionals should cut down on unnecessary spending and prioritise investments for long-term financial stability, advised by the Market expert Vivek Singhal.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

 It holds a significance as this advice comes against the backdrop of reports indicating modest salary increments in HCLTech, India’s third-largest IT services company.  <\/p>\n\n\n\n

“3-4% salary hike to top performers. Don\u2019t be too late; stop spending on unnecessary things, start investing; build up a decent size of portfolio over next 10 years. Remember, there is no salary after retirement,\u201d said Singhal on Monday in a X post<\/a>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

It appears that the HCLTech began rolling out wage hikes for its junior-level employees recently.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The company has offered increments of 1-2 per cent to most employees, while top performers received hikes of 3-4 per cent, during the October-December quarter.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The event has attracted attention considering the fall in figures significantly short of the company’s earlier commitment to provide average annual pay hikes of 7 per cent and double-digit raises of 12-15 percent for top performers.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
