Salary Review
I have been working on GC for last 2 years. At the time of interview when discussing about salary, in good faith asked them to pay according to their company norms and as per GC regulations.They offered 40 K (including non obligatory bonus) which was ok at the beginning. After 4 performance reviews,which was excellent all the time, the salary revision was only 3 %. The work load has also increased much.Now I want to ask for salary hike. Is their any official document showing minimum salary for GC or what is the minimum
salary an GC can work.Any ideas to handle this situation are welcome.
Thanks

"If any one knows how to request or demand in this situation pls help me."
Now you are talking business 
Consider this scenario, today after work you went back home and your wife tells you that you have got a job offer from a big MNC and they are offering you 55K + Perks. Being a reasonble/sensible human being you dont immediately jump-up to the new job-offer and decide to give your present employer one last chance. So, tomorrow you and the HR Manager sit across the table and discuss all the possible options. In light of the new information that someone has put a new price tag of 55K on your head, he suddenly feels himself in presence of an enlightened soul and begs you to recosider your decision.....ofcourse with a raise in your salary

Re: Salary Review
Thanks for the reply.Well if this trick goes well Iam happy . If not is it a good idea to hold the position after expressing our interest in price tags of other companies.

@blueshari
you mentioned a few good arguments in your last posting. Getting the support of the boss (if the HR decides on this topic) helps and is one of the most important things.
The rule of a thumb when negotiating:
Be persistant and hard on the problem and nice and friendly with the person.
It is not only that your technical experience matters when speaking for a raise but also your "social competence". Ironic in the IT branch but very true especialy in the bigger companies. Show confidence.
good luck
