Indian salary packages consist of various components that affect your take-home pay and tax liabilities:
The core component of your salary (usually 40-50% of CTC). Forms the basis for PF and gratuity calculations.
Partial reimbursement for rented accommodation. Tax-exempt under certain conditions based on actual rent paid.
Typically up to ₹50 per meal is tax-exempt under Section 10(14) of the Income Tax Act.
Up to ₹1,600 per month is tax-exempt under Section 10(14) as per current regulations.
Mandatory contribution (12% of basic salary) toward retirement savings. Employee contribution is deducted from salary.
State-level tax deducted at source, typically ₹200-₹300 per month depending on state regulations.
Fixed amount for medical expenses. Tax exemption requires actual medical bills as proof.

Our Monthly Salary Calculator India is designed for simplicity and accuracy. Follow these steps:
The calculator will instantly show your gross salary, total deductions, income tax liability, and net take-home pay. You'll also see your annual salary projection to help with financial planning.
Understanding your exact take-home pay is crucial for several reasons:
Accurate salary calculation helps create realistic budgets and savings plans based on actual disposable income.
Banks consider net salary for loan eligibility. Knowing your exact take-home helps assess borrowing capacity.
Understanding how different salary components are taxed helps optimize your salary structure for tax efficiency.
Understanding CTC vs take-home pay empowers you during salary negotiations for new job opportunities.
Our calculator uses current Indian tax laws and deduction rules to provide highly accurate estimates. However, actual salary may vary slightly based on company-specific policies and state-level professional tax variations. For exact figures, consult your payroll department.
CTC (Cost to Company) is your total compensation package including all benefits and employer contributions. Take-home salary is the actual amount deposited in your bank account after all deductions (taxes, PF, etc.). Typically, take-home salary is 60-70% of CTC.
The new tax regime (effective FY 2023-24) offers lower tax rates but removes most deductions. The old regime allows more deductions but has higher rates. The better option depends on your investments and eligible deductions. Use our calculator to compare both scenarios.
HRA exemption is the minimum of: 1) Actual HRA received, 2) 50% of basic salary (metro) or 40% (non-metro), or 3) Actual rent paid minus 10% of basic salary. You must provide rent receipts to claim this exemption.
Salaried employees can switch between tax regimes each financial year. The choice must be communicated to your employer at the beginning of the financial year. For FY 2023-24, the last date to choose the new regime without business income is before filing ITR.
