The salary ranges from a meagre 15K to probably 2 Lacs/month (higher salary for well-known TV anchors, editors, etc). This is in case of a well known, big media house. The salary of a producer working in office, and that of a reporter are different. There is no specific scale, but the size of the organisation does matter. I worked with ABP News. It was a great place to learn the basics of TV News Production, but the salary was not at par with the workload. Thus, things may differ.
