Subject : Request for a Salary Increment

             As you know, I have been in your service since 10 September 2006, and only got a salary increase of 350 Yuan last year.Now I have been promoted to Team Lead,and our work was widely recognized as a big achievement by Core/Loc team. For these reasons, I'd like to  request a salary increase to reflect my increased knowledge and improved skills in my position . 

    Thank you very much for your time and consideration.


     Yours sincerely,

          Andraw

 Request for a Salary Increase, not increment. And watch the spacing with your punctuation. You want a space after a periodand a comma. You don't want any spaces before the period at the end.

Those suggestions fix the grammatical aspects of your letter. Now, commenting on the content of your letter...I don't think that your length of service there is anything to brag about. You've been there just a year and a half...big whoop (yes, I'm being sarcastic). I would take that out and focus on the increased responsibilities and your promotion and how you have helped the company. Then politely mention that a raise should come with your new responsibilities.

Is it correct sentence ? please help me any one ?


As per spoken to yours, I would like to bring to your attention about my salary increment.

As you are aware that I am working in this company and i am getting very less salary.  Now I got Permented resistence in Singapore  also, Please compare to give me other drafting person to aspect.

 I have been led to believe that you are satisfied with my work, so I am confident that you will want to sincerely consider my request.


Thanking you very much for your kind consideration.

I don't really understand the thrust of your argument, but try this:


Dear Mr [surname],

Pursuant to our previous conversation,
I would like to request a salary increment.
  As you are aware, I have been receiving a smaller salary than other draftspersons here.  Now I have permanent residency in Singapore, and I have been led to believe that you are satisfied with my work.

Please consider my request.

Thank you very much for your time and trouble.


Sincerely yours,
