Dear Rose,
The salary structure varies from company to company. It depends on what components you include at what level, especially at the top management level. It is designed keeping in view the tax liability of the employee. Due to Fringe Benefit Tax, it is not possible to save taxes by giving additional benefits. You can consult a tax advisor for this.
A sample salary structure is mentioned below for your reference:-
Cost to the Company: 420,000 540,000
Basic: 255,825 333,747
