About Salary Calculator

Your CTC (Cost to Company) is rarely the amount that lands in your bank account. This calculator breaks your annual CTC down into basic pay, HRA, employer PF contribution and standard deductions, to estimate your monthly in-hand salary.

Benefits

  • Get a realistic take-home estimate before accepting a job offer.
  • Understand how much of your CTC is deducted toward PF and other components.
  • Compare offers with different CTC structures on a like-for-like in-hand basis.

Common mistakes

  • Treating CTC as the amount you'll receive monthly — it includes employer contributions you never see in cash.
  • Ignoring variable pay or bonuses that may be included in CTC but paid only annually or conditionally.
  • Not accounting for income tax, which this calculator does not compute.

Frequently Asked Questions

No. Income tax depends on your tax regime, exemptions and other income, so it isn't included here. This calculator focuses on CTC-to-gross and standard deductions like PF.

CTC includes employer PF contribution, gratuity provision and other benefits that aren't paid out as monthly cash salary.
