We can go ahead and make this a thread (bengaluru list would be so long lol)
If you're around the 2–4 years of experience mark, this post is for you. This range is often the most confused crowd on LeetCode, especially when it comes to what compensation to expect for SDE roles in NCR.
So here’s a go-to guide for high-paying companies in the region – covering base + total comp (CTC incl. stocks/bonuses) for SDE roles only.
| Organization | Location | Designation | Base (₹ LPA) | CTC incl. stocks/bonuses |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Microsoft | Noida | L60 / L61 | 22L / 28L | 65L – 1 Cr+ |
| Adobe | Noida | MTS2 / CS1 | 20L / 28L | 60L – 1 Cr+ |
| Arcesium | Gurugram | SDE2 | 22L – 28L | 35-40L |
| Sprinklr | Gurugram | SSE | 30L – 40L | 30L – 40L |
| Tower Research | Gurugram | SDE2 | 50L+ | 1 Cr+ |
| D. E. Shaw | Gurugram | MTS | 40L – 60L | 55L – 75L |
| GoDaddy | Gurugram | SDE2 | 26L – 30L | 35L – 40L |
| Blinkit | Gurugram | SDE2 | 35L – 40L | 45L – 52L |
| Expedia | Gurugram | SDE2 | 24L | 38L – 40L |
| Eightfold.ai | Noida | SDE2 | 38L – 40L | 45L – 50L |
| BharatPe | Gurugram | SDE2 | 26L – 34L | 45L – 58L |
📌 Important Notes:
This guide is specifically for SDE roles. Some companies (like Google) do not have core SDE teams in their NCR offices, so they’re not included unless relevant.
Numbers reflect realistic compensation seen recently (2024–2025) for solid 3–4 YOE candidates who’ve cleared interviews.
