Remuneration

Handsome salaries and benefits, company bungalows and a steady pace of living can compensate for the attractions of an urban lifestyle. Most tea gardens are located in picturesque parts of the country, and can be very appealing for those who want to get away from the concrete jungle of the cities.

Assistants in tea gardens can start at salaries from Rs 5,000-10,000 depending on the size of the garden and the owning company. However, in addition salary, new entrants are entitled to a range of allowances and benefits, which include housing and medical benefits.

Brokers, like in most trades, get one per cent of the total transaction from both the buyer and the seller.
