For typical business-analyst role at Amazon: base ₹9.0 L – ₹14.8 L/yr, total compensation ₹10.0 L – ₹15.0 L/yr (with benefits/bonus) depending on location & seniority.
Senior / High-Skill Data/ML / Specialist Roles (Data Scientist, Senior Data Engineer, etc.)Reported higher totals: e.g. some data-scientist profiles show ₹68.4 L/yr on average, ranging from ₹47.3 L to much higher depending on seniority.
For data-engineer profiles (among some reports), wide ranges up to ₹120 L/yr+ for top / senior levels — though this seems more like a high-end outlier distribution rather than base.
Operations / Non-Tech / Support / Warehouse / Entry-Level / Associate RolesVery wide variation; roles at lowest levels (e.g. data-associate / junior support) may have low salaries (as low as a few lakh per year), depending heavily on role and responsibilities.

* “Pay Range / CTC” includes base salary, bonus/benefits, and other additional components, not necessarily fixed take-home pay.


What Affects Salary Differences at Amazon

  • Role type & seniority: Entry-level engineers / associates get the lower end; experienced engineers, data scientists, senior analysts have higher compensation.
  • Skill set & specialization: Roles requiring specialised skills (data engineering, machine learning, cloud, senior system design) tend to pay more.
  • Location & cost-of-living: Working in major cities tends to have slightly higher compensation packages.
  • Performance, bonus, stock, benefits: Additional pay (bonus, stocks, RSUs, allowances) significantly affects total compensation.
  • Role responsibilities: Technical complexity, leadership/management duties, seniority — these raise pay.

What this means if you are applying

  • As a fresh/junior engineer or cloud-support associate, expect roughly ₹12–20 L per year (with variation by location and bonus components).
  • For mid-level technical roles (data engineer, experienced dev), mid ₹20 L–₹30 L+ pay range is common.
  • If you build strong skills (data/ML/advanced cloud), after a few years you may move toward higher compensation ranges (₹40 L–₹70 L+), especially with bonuses/stock.
  • Analysts, business-analyst or non-core tech roles tend to have lower base pay than engineering, reflecting job responsibilities.
