Hi,
The salary break-up comprises of many things, namely:
- Basic Pay
- Dearness Allowance or House Rent Allowance
- City Compensatory Allowance
- Special Personal Allowance
- Conveyance/Transport Allowance
- Dress/Uniform Allowance
- Washing Allowance
- Food/meals Allowance
- Fuel and Maintenance Allowance
- Children Education Allowance
and so on.
See the enclosed file; it'll clear some of your doubts on what break-ups PF is calculated, etc. Surely it'll help you. Furthermore, I would like to acknowledge that I had given a wrong reply sometime back on this website. You may search with my ID, or in the meantime, I'll search and reply to you.
Thanks and have a great weekend.
