So, Now I'm a manager in my current company in Mumbai but I started my career as an web developer and created a job portal website by myself in 2016, so it took 4 month to get some user and in next 2 month got ad monetisation. So, after that I started earning 10k to 15k every month.
So, with that Rs.31300 was my First Salary or say 1st earned money so I gifted a Samsung mobile of 8k to my dad and gave 20k to my mom, kept the rest to me.

I'd have preferred not to comment on your post (as I've been doing of late), but that's a too old fashioned concept that has been prevailing in this country.
Youth are more financially educated these days and no need to surrender first salary for the sake of thinking parents can guide them...
Also, some people tend to do "karz utaari" ritual by doing so for what parents have done for them till they have earned something for the first time. (too cheesy and hypocritical in many scenarios)...
Please don't react thinking I meddled into your affairs, but you may have done what was good for you, I'm saying about new age kids of these days...
Don't want to spoil your good feeling or hurt emotions, but technically, freelancer (esp web developer) income is considered business/other income so not a "salary" as people understand in our country or such like that...
I too started out as a freelancer/web developer way back in 2007 (was in college then) and first real income (if you compare to a salary cheque) in life was a google adsense cheque of about 5.7k if I remember correctly... used paypal in those days (lots of regulatory issues if one remembers) for freelance payments.
Have been an investor since then with the accruing income, live life frugally and proudly will do so for rest of life (I spend only for real needs, not a hard miser)...
@Best_Deal_Hunter See, my post made you feel better (better gift)
Plan a vacation plus end it with a family movie and dinner
My parents never demand anything from me unless it's very urgent (that's a different thing now) but i always try to make them as happy as possible.
