Hello aspirant,
The salary of a Neurologist in India mainly depend on experience and which sector they work on.
In state government hospitals they are paid on an average of 1.2 L per month and in Central hospitals they get paid 1.93L per month. This usually varies and seniors are paid more for about 3L per month in India.
However if you own a clinic or you want to work in a private hospital you get paid of about 3-4L per month. This also varies if you have so much experience and client's.
The average working hours of neurologist per day is about 9 hours in government sectors due to large number of patients. They have to work for about 40 hours per week.
In private sectors, you can decide working hours according to your schedule. Normally neurologist work for 3 -4 hours twice or thrice in a week for consultation in a hospital.Thus they get to consult patients in more than one hospital.
