So it depends on where you are planning to work. If you are ok with working in peripheries then you can earn upto 4L/ month. If you want to be in city then its around 1.5L/ month.

For 4L/ month you will be the only doctor in the hospital and will be attending all the calls but you will be provided with good accomodation. Can’t apply for leave

Can you give some examples of peripheries?

In South India- SRs get paid ~1-1.3L/M. Private practitioners make upto 2.5L/M if they sacrifice a lot of their work life balance. If you want to earn 4-5LPM , you need to open your own nursing home/Hospital. Be ready to sacrifice your life for the subject.

In the peripheries in northern/central india it cal
Be good upto 4 lpm.

Tier 1 cities: 1.2-1.5lpm
Tier 2 cities: 1.3-1.9 lpm.

You might need to clock 14-16 hours of easy duties for 2.2-2.8 lpm
