Delhi has topped the list for the highest daily salary in India for 2025, according to a report by Jagran Josh. The union territory offers the best pay scale among all states and regions, reflecting its strong employment base and economic activity.
Telangana ranks fourth with an average daily salary of Rs 1,192. Andhra Pradesh stands at ninth place with Rs 1,000, while Punjab takes the tenth spot at Rs 962. Interestingly, Uttar Pradesh sits one position above Andhra Pradesh with Rs 1,038 per day.
Daily wages depend on multiple factors, including company policies, market dynamics, and government regulations. Salaries also vary based on industry type and cost of living. Urban regions usually offer higher wages than rural areas due to greater job competition.
The most important factor remains the balance between demand and supply. When skilled workers are fewer and demand is high, as in the technology sector, salaries rise. Conversely, a surplus of workers in any field tends to push wages down.
