Switched job few months back, now the comp doesn’t feel reasonable

Hi, switched job 3 months back on ~50% hike (on paper). First couple of months felt okey as I was paid the joining bonus and notice period buyout. It was hard to understand what’s my actual in-hand per month salary and taxes are. Now with the third month salary I realised it’s nominal take home hike from my last job as I crossed 50 lacs taxable income and liable to pay surcharge too.

On the other hand, I have been hiring for a level down and got better sense of internal comp play as management is okey making exceptions. I feel like I was low balled and deserve better. What are the options apart from starting to look out and switch.
