Net Take Home Pay Calculation
Net Take Home Pay = Gross - Deductions. Components that can be included are:
- Basic
- HRA = 40% of Basic or 50% of Basic (In metros)
- Dearness Allowance, which is based on CPI
- Medical = ₹1250/- per month
- Conveyance Allowance = ₹800/- per month (Used by most organizations)
Deductions
- PF = 12% Basic + DA
- Professional Tax (which will also vary as per the salary)
- Gratuity = 4.81% of Basic
Hope it is clear to some extent.

For ₹8000 CTC, you can go for the following breakup:
Basic: ₹4000
HRA: ₹1997 (45 to 50% of basic)
Conveyance: ₹800
Uniform or any other allowance: ₹400
Gross Salary: ₹7197
CTC = Gross + Employer ESI + Employer PF
= ₹7197 + ₹323 + ₹480 = ₹8000
Hope this information is helpful.

Thank you for the information, but how do we consider the basic?
Basic = How can we consider the basic?
HRA = 40% of Basic
DA = What is CPI?
Medical Allowance = 1250/- per month. Is it fixed?
Convn = 800 per month. Is it fixed?

Dear friends,
Understanding Gratuity and PF/ESI in Salary Slips
Gratuity, the employer's share of PF, and ESI are not required to be shown in monthly salary slips. One must complete 5 years of service under one employer to be eligible for gratuity. The employee's share of PF and ESI contribution is only shown in the salary slip under the deduction column.
Calculating the Gratuity Component
- For one completed year of service, one is entitled to 15 days' salary/wage (basic + DA) towards gratuity, which means the monthly salary divided by 26 days multiplied by 15 days.
- If one's monthly salary is Rs. 100, they are eligible for gratuity (only if they have rendered 5 years of service) at Rs. 100 / 26 x 15 for each year of service.
- Thus, the percentage of one year's gratuity to the annual salary is Rs. 100 x 15 divided by 26 x 12 (months in a year) = 4.81.

As per the Income Tax Act of 1961, uniform allowance is exempt from tax up to actual expenses. Additionally, conveyance allowance of 800 per month is fully exempt. The same applies to children's education allowance of 100 per month for two children and children's hostel allowance of 300 per month for two children.
