Hi Everyone,

Please advise, it's urgent. Help me. I worked in a small company with under 10 employees in Mumbai at Mira-Bhayandar area as an IT Support Technician, basically a user support technician. My salary is 20K per month, annually 2,40,000. My employer told me that he doesn't pay anyone TDS nor does he pay PF or any benefits. He just pays a fixed monthly salary of 12K, 15K, 18K, or 20K to employees.

I need a Payslip Format/Salary Slip Format without TDS and PF deductions in it. He (employer) is willing to deduct/pay only Professional Tax, which is 200 per month in Maharashtra. Can anyone help me or send me how my payslip would look like without any deduction except PT (200) only, since I heard Medical and Conveyance allowance are not needed in payslip for the years 2019-2020-2021?

Is there a standard format that everyone needs to follow in Mumbai/India, and which things are mandatory in a payslip? Can I just show gross pay 20k, deduct PT - 200 so my Net Pay will be 19,800 in Payslip, or do I need to follow any particular format? Is it mandatory to follow a particular format in a payslip or is it mandatory to include DA, HRA, CA, Medical, Education, Special Allowance, TDS, PF, and Professional Tax (PT)? Will my payslip still be considered perfectly fine if my employer just includes Gross Pay - 20k, deducts PT (200), which makes 19,800 as Net Salary, and gives me a cheque of 19,800 as Net salary/In-hand Salary? If this is not recommended, then which things are mandatory to include in a Payslip and which things can be skipped/not mandatory and ignored in a payslip?

Please note I will be using this payslip as proof of my work experience, income, and tax purposes. So, I want to make sure which format I should use for my payslip for 20k per month. Please guide and send/show me a sample format that I can use. Any help would be highly appreciated. Thanks.

Please advise. Thanks again.

In Mumbai, there are specific requirements for what should be included in a payslip and what can be excluded. Here are the key points to consider:

Mandatory Inclusions in a Payslip:
- Gross Pay: This is the total amount of salary before any deductions.
- Professional Tax (PT): Since your employer is deducting Professional Tax, this must be clearly mentioned on your payslip.
- Net Pay: The final amount you receive after all deductions, including Professional Tax.
- Employer Details: Company name, address, and registration details.
- Employee Details: Name, employee ID, and designation.
- Pay Period: The specific month for which the salary is being paid.
- Date of Payment: The date on which the salary is disbursed.
- Any other statutory deductions or contributions that are applicable in your region.

Exclusions in a Payslip (Can be skipped):
- While certain allowances like Medical Allowance, Conveyance Allowance, Dearness Allowance (DA), House Rent Allowance (HRA), and other special allowances are common components of a payslip, they are not mandatory if they are not provided by the employer.
- TDS (Tax Deducted at Source) and PF (Provident Fund) deductions are typically mandatory for companies with more than a certain number of employees. Since your employer has mentioned not deducting these, they can be excluded from your payslip.

Sample Payslip Format:
- Gross Pay: 20,000
- Professional Tax: -200
- Net Pay: 19,800
- Employer Details: Company Name, Address, Registration Number
- Employee Details: Your Name, Employee ID, IT Support Technician
- Pay Period: Month/Year
- Date of Payment: DD/MM/YYYY

By following the above format and including the mandatory details, your payslip will serve as a valid proof of income and work experience. It's important to ensure that the payslip reflects accurate information and complies with the legal requirements in Mumbai.
