Basic salary unless marked as a total. Allowances, housing, travel and pension come on top of basic salary. Pay fixed by Union law (Governor, MPs, High Court judges, IAS and IPS officers) is the same in every State. Offices without a confirmed figure are listed as not confirmed rather than estimated.

Figures are what each member declared when filing nomination for the listed election. Criminal cases are cases declared as pending or decided at that time, not convictions. By-election winners replace the member first elected from that seat; members whose declarations the source does not list openly are shown only through the source link.
