What Are The General Components Of Salary In India?

Hi,
In to-day's business environment, the business performance plays a vital role in very existence of the word "Employee" and based on this performance - the salaray components should be defined. In our establishment, this component plays a vital role. So, we pay 60% of pay package as variable and 40% as fixed. The Fixed component is distributed in Basic,DA,Special allowance,House Rent Allowance. The variable components are Performance Linked Pay(linked with production volume & monthly profitability) & Productivity Linked Pay(linked with production volume only.
I believe, this is the best possible combination of a manufacturing industry.

I remember if the employee submits bills for the amount claimed against conveyance allowance (reimbursement), then the same can be claimed for tax deduction. Also, for lunch allowance, we can give food vouchers / food coupons to allow for tax deduction for that amount.

Dear all
We know that contribution of PF is applicable on leave encashment,leave availed by an employee during the tenure of his service. But what about the unavailed leave wages/salary paid to a separated employee on his final settlement ??
Please make me uderstand the logic and the rules under EPF & MP Act, if any.

Hi !
The percentage is fixed. However, there is no limit for the right employee in the right position. As I spoke, Performance is the only yardstick- I mean both individual & corporate. For an exceptional performer sky is the limit.
Hope you understood my points.
Thnx

Hi All,

Let me try and give you an idea about components of salary

1) Basic - 35 to 40 % 0f gross (taxable)

2) HRA - 40% of basic ( incase of metro cities 50% of basic) ( exempted from tax incase the employee gives rent receipt at 10% of gross annual income or as defined in salary and as per receipts produced)

3) conveyance = 800 per month (800* 12 = 9600 p.a.) (exempted from tax)

4) Medical Reimbursement = 1250 per month ( 1250* 12= 15000 p.a.)(exempted from taxable income)

5) LTA = 1250 per month (1250* 12 - 15000 p.a.)(can be exempted from tax twice in block of 4 years)

6) Meal allowance (cannoned be more than 65Rs per day so 16250 p.a. if 250 days working.

You can put the remaining amount in Special Allowance ( whole of it is taxable) or account for in other allowances such as uniform allowance ( upto 10,000 p.a.)(not taxable), Internet access allowance, phone allowance, professional enrichment allowance,entertainment allowance, City compensatory allowance(20% of basic)(Taxable) etc.

Then in case there is PF deduction:

1)Employers contribution of PF = 12% of basic + DA( 8.33% in FPF (family pension fund) + 3.67% in EPF)

2) Employees contribution in PF = 12% of basic +DA (all in EPF)

In case the gross salary of the employee is less than 10000 then he comes under ESI. Incase ESI is applicable in the organization then

1) Employee contribution to ESI = 1.75% of salary

2) employers contribution in ESI= 4.75 % of salary

tax slabs

0 - 1,00,000 = 0%

1,00,001 - 1,50,000 = 10 %

150,001 - 2, 50,000 = 20%

2,50,001 onwards = 30%

Neha :)
