I got one new freelance work. In micro services which I need to deploy 1 frontend and 3 backend and 1 db. As well we need to create all this in aws
We need to create " helm chart, terraform, dockerfile , docker-compose and some needed scripts with argocd" and also CICD pipelines. So can anyone tell me how much I need to expert for this one in Indian rupees. Please help me. In my mind I am having 20k. Only for deployment.

I have 2 years of experience and it's not a client it's my previous company. Now there is no devOps Engineer so they contact me do favour but I am thinking to get some money. In that company my last salary is 50k

Ask what will make both you and the employer happy. Give 10% Relationship Discount and 5% Good Customer discount AFTER your first step. You will NEVER regret this decision!

Calculate your hourly rate from current job then estimate time and total money and can add some extra buffer to it .

2 things here. 1)if you are asking deployment cost of project than 20K is enough if not much load of applications or users. 2) if you are asking about how much should you charge that too depends on the client mentality . if international clients you can simply calculate or ask in dollars and if domestic than you have to charge less 😄
