It was predicted that in India, the gross salary for any DMLT graduate will go between ₹2.5 lakhs and ₹5 lakhs per year considering experience, region, and specific organization type in which he might be employed in. Freshers will take jobs at the least end, but he/ she will collect more when going a little way up with just a few years of experience on his back. In metropolitan cities or well-established hospitals and diagnostic centers, this could be on the higher side due to a high cost of living and skilled technicians' demands.
Besides working in hospitals, diagnostic labs, and clinics, DMLT graduates can find opportunities in research institutions, pharmaceutical companies, and healthcare startups. All these sectors have the scope for career advancement and higher salaries. For instance, the salary for laboratory managers or supervisors can range between ₹6 lakh to ₹8 lakh or more per year. Many DMLT graduates look for further qualifications or certifications after graduation in specialization areas like microbiology, pathology, or research in clinical for higher earning.
