The hierarchy in kitchen department differs according to the hotels, but the basic hierarchy in star all around the world is (from lower to highest). Commi 3 (most of the hotels don't have Commi 3 now). Commi 2 (entry level new joining comes in this and know about the basic operations of the department salary in India, 10K-12K). Commi 1 (Person who has mastered the knowledge and practical operations, salary 12K-15k). Dcdp\cdp (Demi chef de partie. Also can be known as the shift leader. Some hotels don't have DCDP position. Salary 20K-25k). Jr. Sous Chef /Sous Chef (handles a department, salary 30K-40K). Executive Chef (responsible for all kitchen department salary 1.5 lakhs and above). Salary can be different in different hotels for all the positions. For achieving those levels, your abilities matter. Some take 10-15 years and some people can only achieve CDP level till this time, it totally depends on your focus.
