Frequently asked questions

Why is my in-hand so much lower than the CTC?

CTC includes costs the employer bears that never reach your bank account: the employer's 12% PF contribution, gratuity provision, insurance premiums and sometimes a performance bonus paid annually. Income tax and your own PF share are then deducted from what remains.

How is EPF calculated?

12% of basic plus dearness allowance from the employee, matched by 12% from the employer. Of the employer share, 8.33% goes to the pension scheme (EPS), capped at a wage ceiling of 15,000, and the balance to EPF. Many employers apply the 15,000 ceiling; the tool lets you choose.

When does gratuity become payable?

After five years of continuous service. It is 15 days of last-drawn basic plus DA for each completed year, computed as basic x 15 / 26 per year. Employers provision about 4.81% of basic annually, which is why it appears in CTC.

What is professional tax?

A state levy on salaried income, capped at 2,500 per year by the Constitution. Maharashtra, Karnataka, West Bengal, Tamil Nadu, Telangana and several other states charge it; Delhi, Haryana, UP and Rajasthan do not.

Is ESI deducted from my salary?

Only if your gross monthly wage is 21,000 or below. The employee contributes 0.75% and the employer 3.25%. Above that threshold ESI does not apply and medical cover is usually through a group insurance policy instead.
