Dear [Full Name],
I
have been working as a software architect in your company for the past three
years. At numerous occasions I have proved my credibility and has worked hard
at all instances. Though I am been getting an annual increment of [ ] % but
that seems to be too less at the moment.
For
the past [ ] months I am also taking care of the database design team and will
continue to do so till a new incumbent takes over that position. In view of the
above I would request that a special increment of minimum [ ]% may be granted
to me.
This
act of yours will greatly help motivate me and also increase the morale of
other team members who would like to work with greater zeal.
Thanking you in anticipation,
With Regards
Yours truly,
