Salary Calculator
CTC to in-hand salary with EPF, gratuity, professional tax and income tax under the new regime.
Inputs
Formula
- Basic = CTC × basic%
- Employer PF = 12% of basic ; Gratuity = 4.81% of basic
- Gross salary = CTC − employer PF − gratuity − bonus
- Taxable = Gross + bonus − ₹75,000 standard deduction
- In-hand = (Gross + bonus − employee PF − professional tax − income tax) / 12
CTC is the employer's total cost, not your salary. Employer PF and gratuity are part of CTC but never reach your account monthly, and employee PF is deducted from the gross. What lands in the bank is gross minus the two PF-side deductions, professional tax and TDS. The gap between CTC and in-hand is typically 25–35% at higher salaries.

Assumptions
- New tax regime with the ₹75,000 standard deduction, FY 2025-26 slabs and 4% cess.
- Gratuity accrues at 4.81% of basic (15/26 of a month per year).
- No HRA exemption is applied (the new regime disallows it).
- Professional tax varies by state; ₹2,400/year is the common maximum.
Tips
- A higher basic increases PF and gratuity — better long-term saving, lower monthly cash.
- Ask for the full CTC break-up letter before comparing two offers.
- Employer NPS up to 14% of basic is deductible even in the new regime.
Warnings
- Variable pay is not guaranteed; treat it as a bonus, not salary.
- This estimates TDS on salary only — other income changes your final liability.
Standards & references
- EPF & MP Act 1952
- Payment of Gratuity Act 1972
