King George's Medical University - [KGMU], Lucknow - Affiliated Colleges

The medical colleges paying the highest stipend are AIIMS, KGMU, SGPGI, and RMLIMS. The 7ty pay commission was implemented in August 2019. From the information I gained from various sources, the Gross salary at KGMU is about I NR 106K per month for junior Residents. The inhand salary of a JR at KGMU after deduction of TDS, is 95K given that you are not living in the hostel. 

Usually, residents in state colleges receive 40–50K per month, which is very low considering the workload of junior resident doctors. So, compared to that KGMU pays its JRs pretty well.

Life as a medico at KGMU Lucknow is very vibrant and unexpectedly fun. You will enjoy your time here thoroughly and create some amazing memories.
