Calculation Logic

Net In-Hand = Gross Salary – (Employee PF + Professional Tax + Income Tax)

Step 2: Calculate Employer PF as 12% of Basic.

Step 3: Gross Salary = CTC – Employer PF.

Step 4: Apply Income Tax on (Gross – Standard Deduction).

Example Case (₹10 LPA CTC)

For a CTC of ₹10,00,000:
  • Employer PF Portion: ₹60,000
  • Annual Gross Salary: ₹9,40,000
  • Income Tax (New Regime): ₹0 (Rebate up to ₹12L)
  • Monthly In-Hand: ₹73,133

Understanding CTC vs In-Hand Salary

The "Cost to Company" (CTC) includes several components that are never credited to your bank account, such as employer PF contributions and non-cash perks. To get a realistic idea of your monthly budget, you must calculate the "Take-Home" or "In-Hand" salary by deducting statutory payments and income tax.
