Frequently asked questions

How do I calculate in-hand salary from CTC?

Divide annual CTC by 12 for monthly gross, then subtract the employee PF, professional tax and monthly income tax. For a ₹12,00,000 CTC, this tool shows gross ₹1,00,000, PF ₹6,000, professional tax ₹200 and income tax about ₹5,958, leaving about ₹87,842 in hand per month.

What salary structure does this calculator assume?

It assumes basic pay is 50% of monthly gross, HRA is 50% of basic (25% of gross), employee PF is 12% of basic, professional tax is a flat ₹200 when gross is above ₹15,000, and the remainder is other allowances. Your real payslip can differ, so use this as an estimate.

Why is my take-home salary less than CTC divided by 12?

CTC usually includes employer costs such as employer PF, gratuity, insurance and variable pay that do not reach you monthly. Your payslip also deducts employee PF, professional tax and TDS. This calculator treats CTC as gross salary and does not model employer-side items, so your real take-home may be lower.

Which tax regime does the salary calculator use?

It applies the new tax regime slabs with a ₹75,000 standard deduction and 4% cess, spread evenly across 12 months. It does not include old regime deductions, the Section 87A rebate or other tax-saving investments. Your employer's TDS may differ, so confirm with your payroll team.

What is the difference between gross salary and net salary?

Gross salary is your pay before deductions, including basic, HRA and allowances. Net salary, or take-home pay, is what remains after deductions such as PF, professional tax and income tax (TDS). In this calculator, gross is CTC ÷ 12 and net in-hand is gross minus those three deductions.

Is professional tax the same in every state?

No. Professional tax is levied by state governments, and some states do not charge it at all. Slabs and monthly amounts differ. This calculator uses a flat ₹200 per month when gross salary is above ₹15,000, so your actual deduction may vary by state.

Is my data shared when using the Salary Calculator?

No. Toolskyt operates under a zero-server policy. All calculations, data formatting, and file exports are executed locally on your machine.

Do I need to sign up or pay to use the Salary Calculator?

No, this tool is 100% free. There are no limits, sign-ups, subscriptions, or hidden charges required.

What is a reducing interest rate?

A reducing interest rate means interest is charged only on the remaining outstanding principal balance at the end of each period, rather than the initial loan amount.
