Formula for Salary Calculation
The Salary Calculator uses a structured approach to calculate the take-home salary by considering various salary components.
- Basic Salary: 40% to 50% of the total salary, depending on experience and qualifications.
- House Rent Allowance (HRA): Given to employees living in rented accommodation, partially exempt under Section 10(13A) of the Income Tax Act.
- Leave Travel Allowance (LTA): Reimburses travel expenses incurred by employees, subject to proof of travel.
- Professional Tax: Levied by the State, with a maximum limit of Rs. 2,500 per financial year.
- Special Allowance: Fully taxable component of the salary, provided at the employer’s discretion.
- Bonus/Performance Incentive: Additional payment based on employee performance.
- Employee Provident Fund (EPF): Employer and employee each contribute 12% of basic salary, with part of the employer’s contribution allocated to the Employee Pension Scheme (EPS).
Formula for Take-Home Salary Calculation
Gross Salary = CTC – Bonus
Total Deductions = Professional Tax + EPF (Employee Contribution) + EPF (Employer Contribution) + Employee Insurance
Take-Home Salary = Gross Pay – Total Deductions
Example
Let us take an example to understand the formula better:
CTC: Rs. 5,00,000 per year
Bonus: Rs. 50,000
Professional Tax: Rs. 2,400 per year
EPF Contribution: Rs. 1,800 per month (12% of Rs. 15,000)
Employee Insurance: Rs. 2,000 per year
Step 1: Calculate Gross Salary:
Gross Salary = Rs. 5,00,000 – Rs. 50,000 = Rs. 4,50,000
Step 2: Calculate Total Deductions:
Total Deductions = Rs. 2,400 + Rs. 21,600 + Rs. 21,600 + Rs. 2,000 = Rs. 47,600
Step 3: Calculate Take-Home Salary:
Take-Home Salary = Rs. 4,50,000 – Rs. 47,600 = Rs. 4,02,400
The net salary received by the employee is Rs. 4,02,400 after considering all applicable deductions.
