Estimated annual compensation based on experience level
Growth Outlook
Strong through 2030 — India's iOS user base (~60-70M devices) is growing as iPhone pricing declines into the ₹50K range; premium consumer app investment (CRED, PhonePe, Zomato, MakeMyTrip) remains iOS-native; SwiftUI, Swift Concurrency, Swift Macros, and visionOS keep the technical surface area expanding; scarcity premium over Android persists as iOS engineers graduate into staff roles, leaving the mid-band chronically thin.
