Hello everyone,

I am a new member of this forum and also a fresher in HR jobs. I would like to know how I can calculate Basic, DA, HRA, TA, and deductions such as PF, ESIC, and others similar to the above. I hope you all can help me by sharing the percentage breakdown of each component. Thank you for your assistance!

Dear Sir,

You have assigned the password to the salary.xls file. I want to open that file and understand how the salary is calculated. Would you be kind enough to send the password, please?

Thank you!

Hi Sapan,

HRA is always deducted from the basic salary; the percentage of deduction depends on the company policy and can be either 30% or 40% of the basic salary. Additionally, PF deduction is 12% of the basic salary, contributed by both the employee and the employer.

Hello, Mr. Anil,

I have the same problem with the salary calculation method. Could you please explain to me how to calculate the percentage of HRA, PF, and what is the scale of Basic? Will you kindly help me?

Hello All, I want to know about HRA calculation for salary breakup. How much % is HRA of Basic or Gross? Is the minimum wage inclusive of Basic + HRA in Delhi & Punjab? As per the new judgment of the Supreme Court, PF is calculated on Basic + DA + Other fixed monthly allowances. If someone is drawing a gross salary of 50,000/- per month with the breakup for Punjab Shop & Establishment employees as Basic: 10,800, HRA: 7,500 (15% of Gross), VMA: 5,000, and Other Allowances: 26,700/-, then should PF be deducted on the maximum limit of Rs. 15,000/- or on Rs. 42,500/-? Please suggest. In my opinion, it should be deducted on 15,000/-.
