We have found the minimumsalary of an employee whose salary is greater than 50000. Also, the employeecity must be one of the names included in the city IN parameter. The Pune citywill be grouped into one city of all the employees whose city is Pune and foundthe employees' salary, and the same approach is used for Mumbai city.

Output:

Here, we can see only cities with aggregate salariesare greater than 50000. Having a clause is like where clause. Having clause isused when we want to apply some condition to the aggregate function. We usedhaving clause only when we used aggregate function in the query.
