Among all public sector bank PO positions, the SBI PO (State Bank of India Probationary Officer) is considered to have the highest salary and best overall compensation package. As per the latest revised pay structure, the starting basic pay of an SBI PO is ₹48,480, which includes four advance increments, effectively placing the starting basic pay at ₹56,480.
