Hi friends,
I am new to the forum. I am serving in Defense and planning to transition to the corporate sector. I find it challenging to calculate my annual CTC. I would like to know whether it is based solely on my salary statement or if I should also include other benefits such as free medical facilities, accommodation, ration, clothing, bonuses, gratuity, leave travel benefits, pension, insurance, etc. If yes, how can we calculate the monetary value of the intangibles and facilities we receive in the armed forces? I hope to receive a detailed response on this subject from everyone.
Thank you, Ramesh.

I would like to inform you that you should not only count CTC as per your salary statement but should also include other benefits like free medical facilities (with the premium paid by the organization), accommodation, ration, clothing, bonus, leave travel benefits, transportation facilities, and telecommunication facilities (if your mobile and residential phone bills are paid by the organization). After five years of service, you can also count Gratuity.
Hi, most of the private companies have now removed intangibles income as it comes under FBT. In the private sector, it's mostly divided into the following parts: Basic - 40% of CTC, Conveyance - 800 pm, PF - 12% of basic, Medical - 15000 p.a., LTA - 12000 p.a., Variable & Personal pay - if applicable.
But companies also have one account for Reimbursement, for example, telephone (call bills), transfer bills, relocation bills, hospital insurance, pension plans, sick leave, business travel trip, awards, performance incentives, bonus, etc.

Dear All Members of the forum,
I have joined a company that calculates my salary on a CTC basis. In my CTC, they are including gratuity, which is then deducted from my overall CTC. Is this practice right or wrong? Please guide me.
Thanks a lot,

Hi,
As the name suggests, all expenses incurred on behalf of the employee by the company form part of the CTC. The typical components of CTC are:
1. Basic
2. HRA and all other allowances (Conveyance, Dearness, special, etc.)
3. PF and Gratuity payable by the company.
4. Insurance payable by the company.
5. Canteen/Uniform, etc.
Hope this clarifies.

The concept of showing the salary of an employee in the form of CTC (Cost To Company) is a new style idea developed by companies to attract employees. Since the CTC includes all costs to be incurred by employing a person, projecting the employment to a period coming after 5 years in addition to the actual remuneration payable every month, the amount offered will be significant. This is just to attract employees. I have come across a salary structure with medical reimbursement made a part of CTC. The poor employee expected the same also as receivable every month, but he was denied it, saying adequate proof is not given for having spent the amount. Similarly, for many, the meaning of Gratuity is not aware. They feel that they will get it every month! They do not know the gratuity is payable only after they complete 5 years with the employer.
Therefore, do not believe in the CTC concept. When accepting a job, think whether the monthly salary alone is acceptable or not. Do not take the CTC since there is nowhere mentioned about BTC (Benefit To the Company by employing a person - in fact, if there is a cost involved, there should be a benefit also!).

Hi friends,
It is a simple topic, but still a confusing one, I think. Anyways, our friend Amit has got the solution for his problem. Amit, what all have you told is correct. Gratuity is part of CTC, as the name suggests Cost To Company, i.e., the total cost that the company will incur on you. I hope many of our friends have got this clarified.

Hi Friends,
I am planning to restructure my employees' salary structure from next month (April). Can anybody help me do it the best way for both the employee and the company? How much percentage of the total salary can be given as reimbursements? What are the possible reimbursements for which employees can provide bills and get tax exemption? What will be the FBT on these components?
Right now we have Car petrol, Car maintenance, driver salary, electricity, and telephone reimbursement as per actuals. Other reimbursements like entertainment, books & periodicals, office attire, and medical are included with the salary, and bills would be collected at the end of the year.
Can I add more heads? Do those heads have any limits? What are their FBT rates? Help me.......

Hi,
Thanks for the inputs. However, in defense, calculating the monetary equivalent of these benefits is quite difficult. When preparing the CTC, the value of these benefits is hard to estimate since the monetary value of these benefits is never highlighted anywhere by the organization. I hope someone with a clearer view of the defense setup can provide more insights.
