For example, Store Managers at Tanishq have reported salary ranges broadly between ₹3.3 lakh and ₹10.5 lakh per year, with compensation varying by experience, city, and store performance.
Salary by Store Type
The size and performance of the store also influence compensation.
| Store Type | Typical Salary |
|---|---|

| Medium Retail Store | ₹4-₹6 LPA |
| High-Revenue Store | ₹6-₹9 LPA |

Managing a flagship showroom often comes with greater responsibility, including higher sales targets, larger teams, and VIP clientele.
