out of 1.5 million most of the students are from tier 2 and tier 3 colleges. The education and opportunities in Tier 2 colleges makes most of the student employable while students from tier 3 colleges are barely employable.

out of 1.5 million only 10% are employable i.e 150k grads [1] Out of that 150k, 50% will be employed by mass recruiters (Infosys, TCS, Cognizant, HCL, Wipro)

The numbers you've provided are typically associated with mass recruiters who hire students fresh from college (most of whom are bad at coding). These companies (Infosys, Tcs etc.) pays peanuts compared to other reputed companies. The number of candidates for these mass recruiters is so high, it often reduces the average salaries.

If you only consider good colleges and good companies, the number would be around

Fresh: $10k - $20k

3-5 YOE: $20 - $35k

5 YOE - >$35k

I am currently looking out for opportunities in a fast paced environment where i can learn. Getting bored in my current job due to slow paced work

This is quite a common practice in some countries, Here in India there's a whatsapp scam going where someone from an international number contacts you to give fake ratings to places on google maps in return for 150INR (1.8 USD)
