Dear Firend, thank you very much for your question. you have not mentioned your educational qualifications. The biologist could be a botanist, zoologist, microbiologist, biotechnologist, nabo-biotechnologist, biochemist, agricultural scientist, veterinary scientist, geneticist, forensic scientist, marine biologist, biomedial scientist or engineer, pharmacologist, environmental scintist and many more disciplines.

The slary structure depends upon the discipline of biology, the qualifications of the person, experience in relevant field and place of job, whether governmental sector (colleges, univesities, institutions) or multinational or private companies.

If a person is having doctoral degree and no exprience, he may be recruited as lecturer, assistant professor or assistant scientist in college, university or institute. He will be recurited on a pay scale of Rs.15600-39100 with and Academic Grade Pay (AGP) of Rs. 5400. With increase in experience the AGP of the person also increase from Rs 5400 to 6600 to 7600.

If you are holding a masters degree in biology then you will get an entry level of Senior Research Fellow (SRF) or Junior Research Fellow (JRF), the salary will be Rs. 16000 fixed + HRA (depending upon the the type of city) for first two years and then Rs. 18000 fixed in third year.

As you gain experience you get promotion, from Assistant Professor you become Associate Professor with a pay scale of Rs 37400-67000 + AGP of Rs. 9000. From Associate Professor to become Profesor with a pay scale of Rs 37400-67000 + AGP Rs 10000.

IN the seventh pay commission we will expect more hike in the salary structure.

Similarly, in research institution where the biologist is inducted as Scientist B, then promoted to C and to D,E,F and more, the salary structure is same as university but there are some additional benefits.

In private company or multinational company the salary depends upon company to company. If a biologist work in multinational company like Pfizer, Monsanto, Sigma the salary structure wil be better and much higher compared to a national company. IN these companies the perosn holding a doctoral degree can make an entry at Rs. 1,00,000 to 2,00,000 per month. On the other hand the antional companies involved in biological disciplines will offer less, the reason is growth and earning of the company.

The biological subjects like molecular biology, genetic engineering, biotechnology, pharmacology do have great job potential in multinational companies compared to traditional biological subjects; botany and zoology.

Now you have to decide, where you wish to work. My suggestion would be, increase your qualifications and experience. If you are technically and educationally qualified for the job of your dream, you will definitely get it.

With all my best wishes.

Good Luck..
