4 Associates: 1 crore approx
2 Senior Associates: 60 - 70 lakhs approx
1 Principal Associate: 60 - 70 lakhs approx
1 Counsel: 70 lakhs approx
1 Junior Partner: 80 lakhs approx
Senior Partner: depends***
Note: inflate the figures for folks from Trilegal and TTA.
Going by your eg, the team would have to bill about 15 Cr to get to the 3x mark. Assuming the Senior Partner takes home 1 Cr fixed
Also do tell how the bonus for partners computed/factored? Have heard that the most a non-equity partner can make is 1.5 Cr even if he makes it rain. A senior partner starts at about 1.5 to 2 and rest depends on how much he makes it rain
Adding to this, some firms also have have fixed targets for Associates lol, its a pathetic way to live life.
