How does the formula work?
Basic = Basic% × CTC; HRA = HRA% × Basic; Employer PF = 12% × Basic; Gratuity = 4.81% × Basic; Gross = CTC − Employer PF − Gratuity; In-hand = Gross − Employee PF − Professional Tax.
How it works
A salary breakup converts your annual CTC into its components — Basic, HRA, allowances, employer PF, gratuity — and computes monthly in-hand pay.
