Thanks to all of your for replies. There is some really interesting discussion going on here.
My salary in my current job is very close to my manager's salary (I got this from my conversation with our recruiter while negotiating job salary 8 months ago). My manager was promoted at the time I joined this company. He used to be individual contributor for 7 years and at present I am the only report under him.
I feel that my salary is capped because my manager is being underpaid. Even if I tell them about the salary I am getting in my new offer, I don't think they will be able to match that for keeping me.
Another positive of my new job is that I will be reporting to Senior Director. I am 4 levels below Senior Director in my current job. Of course this may not directly mean anything in terms of career progression as I understand that job titles don't mean anything at many work places anyway.
