    What is the starting salary for a fresher blockchain developer in India? I just cleared a technical interview at a DeFi company.

    I am a CS student with three months of internship experience as a smart contract developer. My internship was unpaid, so I have no idea about salary expectations.

    What salary should I expect for an in-office blockchain developer job in India? I appreciate any advice from those working in the blockchain industry.

    First of all congratulations of clearing technical round of interview. You are a well positioned for the post of defi smart contract developer due to your internship experience. As a fresher, India based blockchain companies offer between ₹6-12 LPA, depending on the company and location. With your niche in DeFi and hands-on smart contract experience (even unpaid), you can expect for ₹8-14 LPA. But Startups generally offer ₹8-10 LPA + equity, while established firms or global DeFi projects could stretch to ₹12-14 LPA.

    While negociating, you should highlight your internship’s technical scope like tools used, contracts deployed. Cities like Bangalore, Hyderabad, and Mumbai tend to offer higher brackets.

    Feel free to DM if you’d like resume/negotiation tips—happy to help!
