Hi John,
First, jot down all points in your favor for a salary hike:
1. Your Qualifications
2. Your experience elsewhere
3. Your contributions in the present organization
4. Significant achievements made by you in the present organization
5. How your present salary is not matching up to industry standards
6. The present inflationary indices
Then, with this data in hand, choose the right time and first discuss orally with your boss to convince him. You may gauge his mindset after your discussion with him.
My suggestion is that instead of writing emails, you should consider achieving your objective through oral discussions with higher-ups.
Good luck! Keep the community posted on any success in your endeavors.

Greetings,
I second your opinion on talking about the hike rather than writing a formal letter. A discussion with the reporting manager, sharing an interest to seek feedback would yield much higher results than a document. A letter should be preferred when it is required as a part of the process. I look forward to hearing what our other members feel about this.
