A 60-second negotiation script generator. Personalized email, call, and WhatsApp variants — anchored on real Indian offer data so you sound informed, not greedy.

Real Indian HRs walk through what makes them counter, hold, or walk — line by line.
Used the email exactly as written. They came back with ₹16.5L on a ₹14L offer in 6 hours. The "I'm not playing the field" line was the unlock.
Did the mock interview before sending. The HR caught me sounding apologetic — I rewrote with confidence and got my full ask.
WhatsApp variant was perfect — recruiter replied in 2 hours with a counter. Honestly didn't think it'd work that well.

This is a free salary negotiation script generator built for Indian offers. You enter your current CTC, the offered CTC, your target counter, and a few details about your situation (experience, role, current notice period). The tool returns three ready-to-send scripts: an email for the formal counter, a call script for spoken negotiation, and a WhatsApp variant for casual follow-up — all calibrated against real negotiation outcomes from 400+ Indian HR professionals in our network.
You can copy any of the three scripts directly into Gmail, WhatsApp, or use the call script as your prep notes. We do not store the inputs or the generated scripts — everything runs in your browser.
The rule of thumb most career coaches give you ("ask for 25-30%") is wrong for India. It is calibrated for US tech compensation, where salary bands are wider and recruiters expect counter-offers. Indian recruiters work with tighter budgets, more rigid bands, and faster offer-acceptance windows. Over-asking gets your offer rescinded, not raised.
For most Indian offers, 10–15% above the initial offer is the safe negotiable range when you have similar offers or above-market skills. 15–25% is achievable if you have a competing written offer at a higher number. Less than 8% is rarely worth the friction — accept and renegotiate at next appraisal.
Email is the default — it gives the recruiter time to escalate internally and keeps a paper trail. Use a call only if the recruiter explicitly asks for one or the gap is under 8%. WhatsApp is acceptable for casual follow-ups but never for the primary counter-ask. The tool generates all three variants.
Always before accepting in writing. Once you accept (even verbally on a call), the recruiter has zero incentive to revise upward. The negotiation window is the 24–72 hours after the offer letter is shared and before you e-sign or send acceptance email.
Indian recruiters almost always ask for current CTC. You can answer truthfully but anchor the conversation on market value and the value you bring, not on your current pay. If your current CTC is below market, say so explicitly: "My current CTC reflects an early-career joining; my ask reflects current market for my skill set."
Yes — and this is often easier when the recruiter says base is fixed. Joining bonus has the most room (cap is usually 1–3 months of base). ESOPs are easier in early-stage startups. Both have tax disadvantages vs base, so weigh the trade-off. The generator includes language for both.
In 70%+ of cases this is anchoring language, not literal truth. Respond with: thank them, restate your ask with clear justification (market data, competing offer, specific contribution), and give them 24 hours to escalate. If they truly cannot move, ask for joining bonus, an early review (90-day instead of annual), or higher variable. Walking away is the strongest move if you have a backup.
