    HI Mansoor! The salary depends on the industry and company you eventually get employed for. For Example; Mechanical Engineers are required in Merchant Navy and they drive a salary of 1.5 to 6 lakhs as junior and mid-level engineers. But a Mechanical engineer employed in a factory might only be able to make 30000 per month.
    Similarly, Electical Engineer on an Oil and Gas Drilling Rig makes 8 Lacs a month. So, you need to first understand the industry and then only you can decide and select your career path.
