BSc radiology salary in India depends mostly on who employs you, and the only pay figures we can back with official documents come from government hospitals. An <\/span>ESIC memorandum of 16 October 2025<\/span><\/a> places the Radiographer post at Level 6 of the 7th CPC pay matrix, and that level runs from \u20b935,400 to \u20b91,12,400 a month.<\/span><\/p>\n

Private hospitals and diagnostic centres set their own pay, and no official body publishes it. So this guide does not quote a private-sector number. It shows what government documents say, what moves a radiographer’s pay, and how to plan the four years before your first job.<\/span><\/p>\n

The ESIC memorandum sets the level for the Radiographer post. The Level 6 range is printed in the <\/span>Central Institute of Psychiatry circular of 25 March 2022<\/span><\/a> for its Senior Radiographer post. The Chandigarh figures come from the <\/span>minutes of a committee that drafted recruitment rules<\/span><\/a> on 4 March 2024, so treat them as a guide to how that employer grades the post, not a rate card for every hospital.<\/span><\/p>\n

These are pay-matrix figures, which are basic pay. Allowances are added on top and depend on where you are posted.<\/span><\/p>\n

Some posts pay a consolidated monthly sum instead of a pay level. A <\/span>recruitment notice from AIIMS Bathinda dated 28 February 2026<\/span><\/a> offered a Technician a consolidated salary of \u20b940,000 a month, with no other allowances or benefits. It accepted a B.Sc in Radiological Imaging, a diploma in Radiological Imaging or a B.Sc in Emergency Medical Technology, along with the experience the notice sets. This is one government institute’s offer for one post, so read it as an example of a fixed monthly sum, not as a rate for private hospitals.<\/span><\/p>\n

Qualifications differ by employer. The Senior Radiographer circular accepts a diploma with two years of radiography experience or a bachelor’s degree with one year. The Chandigarh draft rules accept a B.Sc. in Medical Technology (X-ray\/Radiology) or Medical Radiation Technology, or a diploma with one year of experience. Read the qualification line in every notice before you plan around a post.<\/span><\/p>\n

Private Hospitals and Diagnostic Centres<\/b><\/h3>\n

Private employers set pay by role, city, shift pattern and the scanner you run, and they do not publish pay bands. Job and salary websites list ranges, but none of them is checked against an official record, so we have left them out.<\/span><\/p>\n

When you receive an offer, ask what the pay is for your exact role, whether it changes after a probation or training period, and whether shift or on-call work is paid separately.<\/span><\/p>\n
