WHY IT MATTERS

What is CTC?

CTC (Cost to Company) is the total expense your employer incurs for you in a year. It includes your cash salary as well as employer contributions you never see in hand, such as employer PF and gratuity. In-hand salary is the part of that cash salary that actually reaches your bank account after deductions.

Because CTC can include non-cash components, dividing your annual CTC by 12 does not give your monthly in-hand. This calculator separates employer contributions from cash and then applies the real deductions to show your take-home.

THE FLOW

How your in-hand salary is worked out

  1. Annual CTC — your total package from the offer letter.
  2. Gross salary — fixed + variable cash pay (CTC minus employer contributions).
  3. Employee PF — deducted from your cash salary.
  4. Professional tax — a small state levy deducted at source (varies by state).
  5. Income tax / TDS — based on your tax regime and taxable income.
  6. Other deductions — any applicable additions such as VPF or benefits.
  7. Monthly in-hand — annual take-home divided by 12.

KEY COMPONENTS

PF, income tax and professional tax

Employee PF is typically 12% of your basic salary, deducted at source and invested in your provident fund. Income tax depends on whether you choose the new or old regime for FY 2026-27. Professional tax varies by state — for example Karnataka levies about ₹2,400 a year while Delhi does not charge it.

The calculator applies the FY 2026-27 slabs, standard deduction, Section 87A rebate and cess, and always shows the assumptions behind your estimate.

FY 2026–27

Which financial year is supported?

This calculator uses the FY 2026-27 rules: the new-regime standard deduction of ₹75,000, the ₹4L tax-free threshold under the new regime, and a ₹15,000/month PF wage ceiling. Figures are estimates and may differ from your actual payslip depending on your employer’s structure.

FAQ

Frequently asked questions

How is in-hand salary calculated from CTC?

Start with your annual CTC, subtract employer-only components (like employer PF and gratuity) to get gross cash salary, then subtract employee PF, professional tax and income tax to reach your annual in-hand. Divide by 12 for the monthly figure.

What is the difference between CTC and in-hand salary?

CTC is the total cost an employer incurs, including employer contributions that you never receive as cash. In-hand salary is what actually lands in your account after deductions like income tax, employee PF and professional tax.

Does CTC include employer PF?

Yes, in this calculator employer PF and gratuity are treated as part of CTC but are not paid to you as monthly cash — they are employer contributions.
