Sir,

Gross vs. Net Salary

- **Gross Salary:** The total of eligible components is the gross salary.
- **Net Salary:** Deductions, such as PF, ESI, canteen, and transport, subtracted from the gross salary, result in the net salary.

Could anyone tell me which part of the fixed salary or gross salary is going to be deducted if we take extra leave or more leave than the assigned casual leave for the month? Will they deduct from the total gross salary, or will they deduct from any one of the basic salary, HRA, DA, or other allowances of the gross salary? I hope you will understand my question.

Regards,

Understanding Base Salary Calculation

How can I calculate the base salary? Is this salary fixed by an employer? I am confused about this. Somebody's saying that it is 50% or 40% of CTC. I do not know how it comes. Can anyone clear my doubt? I mean, I am clear if the basic salary is fixed by an employer. Otherwise, is it calculated from CTC or not? I am getting confused about that.

Thanks,
