New to the Job: Is My Software Firm's Salary Offer Fair and What's My Take-Home Pay?

I am a fresher joining a software firm in a couple of days. The company provided me with this salary structure. Can someone please tell me how good/bad it is? And if possible, also the in-hand salary that I will be getting?

This breakup is right. If you are comparing it against your present salary, then compare new fixed pay vs new fixed pay. Variable pay is usually subject to the achievement of set KPIs/Appraisal parameters.

What I understand in this salary breakup is Rs 208,000 is your variable pay, which you will get only after 100% performance achievement.
Can someone also give me a rough estimate of the in-hand salary after tax deduction that I will be getting?

It's always better to clarify with the new HR Manager the exact amount of the salary they are offering, rather than making assumptions or calculations. By doing this, you can be sure and build trust. As far as I know, the monthly take-home pay after deducting income tax should be approximately Rs 62,500 (+/- 3%).
