Salaries in the UK are much higher than in India for most similar job roles. For example, a software engineer in the UK earns around £45,000–£65,000 per year, while in India, the average is about ₹8–20 lakh per year. The same applies to jobs in IT, healthcare, and finance, where professionals in the UK earn 2–3 times more. The higher pay in the UK also matches its higher cost of living and global work standards.
