Only when all these companies come together and stop such horse trading the candidates will also not ask for such hikes. The prospective candidated know that there are somebody who are ready to pay such hike in salaries so are their expectations too. There is also peer pressure of the prospects who see that his buddy pal has got such a jump why not me try for the same what is there to loose in this when so much of job is available around. It is hign time that we try to mitigate this issue or as the gentleman in ge mentioned there won't be any jobs available to advertise for or to look for. thanks babu.

This is compitition. This is demand supply business. Comparing 30% hike in india with 3% in US doesn't make any point. as 1 $ = @ Rs.50 To keep same annual hike in India it should be above 40%.

When we had only Doordarshan, watching TV was simple. Now with so many channels, people flip channels like crazy. The same stuff is happening in IT and airline industry. One way to retain people would be to give them stock options which would vest over a period of 5 years or so. Niraj, I think India has lot of talent, but the trouble is in retaining them.
