Sure, I can provide you with the breakdown of the percentages for basic salary, House Rent Allowance (HRA), Travel Allowance (TA), and miscellaneous components in your salary structure. Let me gather the information for you.

Hi Annie, The percentage of basic, HRA, TA, and miscellaneous in a salary breakup can vary depending on the company's policies and the employee's level and position. Typically, the basic salary constitutes around 40-50% of the total salary, HRA around 40-50%, TA around 5-10%, and miscellaneous around 5-10%. However, these percentages can vary, and it's best to check with your employer for the specific breakdown of your salary.

Legally, there are no specific percentages or breakdowns based on percentages. Ideally, there should be two important components: Basic salary and Variable Dearness Allowance. These components should align with the statutory wages set by the government. If you prefer not to include DA as part of your salary, you can combine the total of Basic and VDA under Basic salary and allocate any desired amounts to HRA, Conveyance, or other allowances.
