Where these numbers come from
Every figure on this page is aggregated from 14 live accountant jobs on OnJob.io that disclose pay. We take each listing's salary, convert it to an annual INR amount, and report the minimum, quartiles, median and maximum. We only count roles priced in INR and drop values outside a plausible annual range so a single typo cannot skew the result.
These are indicative market ranges, not guaranteed offers. The band updates as accountant jobs are posted or expire.
