I personally know many ITAs who get 20LPA.

Do not suggest something if you dont know about it.

Getting more than standard is a different thing. I think you don't know about it

Yes,but ITA gets 100% VA irrespective of which IOU you belong to but C3A gets cut in VA based on IOU/unit performance (30-50% cut)

Ask for 25lpa fixed, otherwise it's a waste of your time. Because once you join tcs, your pay won't increase until you switch. Also, as far as I know, you cannot leave and rejoin tcs again, please be mindful of that too
