Estimate only — actual pay depends heavily on company type (a startup or GCC typically pays above a services firm in the same city), specific skills, and negotiation. See the full Machine Learning Engineer salary guide for the full picture and sourcing.

How These Estimates Are Built
National salary bands come from our role-specific salary guides, compiled from published industry sources — see the India AI Salary Report 2026 for the full breakdown and sourcing notes. City adjustments are drawn from our city-by-city AI job market guides, which compare local pay against the national average based on publicly available data.
Treat this as a starting estimate, not a guarantee — company type moves pay more than city does, and published salary sources disagree, sometimes widely, because they draw on different samples.
