Salvation is not same as Moksha

“Salvation” is an ambiguous word that can refer to a lot of phenomena. It is not just a question of how one might get saved, but also what one is saved from and to. In Hinduism, "salvation" is most frequently referred to as “moksha,” which means most literally “release.” One is saved, not from sin, but from one's own existence. The point of moksha is to be released from the cycle of reincarnation.
