Quick Pick — Common CTC Slabs

Jump straight to a full breakdown for one of the most-searched CTC values.

Why Your In-Hand Pay Is Lower Than Your CTC

When a company quotes a salary in LPA, that figure is almost always your CTC (Cost to Company) — the total amount the company spends on you in a year, not what reaches your bank account every month. CTC bundles together your fixed pay, the employer's own PF contribution, and gratuity reserved for if you stay 5+ years — none of which you receive as monthly cash.

From your actual cash salary, your own PF contribution, professional tax (in states that levy it), and income tax are deducted before the rest lands in your account. These calculators walk through that full chain — CTC → gross salary → deductions → in-hand pay — using the actual FY 2025-26 tax slabs and PF rules, so you can see where every rupee goes.

Frequently Asked Questions

How accurate is this calculator?

It models the most common salary structure used by Indian private-sector employers (basic ~40% of CTC, HRA ~50% of basic, statutory PF and tax rules for FY 2025-26), but every employer structures CTC slightly differently. Use it as a close estimate, not an exact figure from your specific offer letter.

Does this use the old or new tax regime?

Both — every calculator lets you switch between the new tax regime (default since FY 2023-24) and the old regime, so you can compare your actual take-home under each.
