What ageing factor are you using in India for data that is seven months old by April?

Our survey data for India has an effective date of 1 September and our structure takes effect on 1 April. I manage reward for the Bengaluru and Pune centres of a European engineering group, about 2,800 people.

The salary budget forecasts I have seen for our sector range from 9% to 10.5%, but attrition-driven movement in a few hot skills is plainly faster than that. Ageing everything at a flat 9.5% a year feels too blunt.

Are you ageing by job family, and where do you take the factors from?
