There is no rule as such as far as i know... but the candidates always look for break up salary so that they can evaluate each and every component

Generally, organizations issue two letters: one as an offer before joining, which only states the CTC, and the second appointment letter is given after the candidate has joined. The second letter provides the full break-up of the individual's CTC. This breakdown will help in calculating the take-home salary. The gratuity component may or may not be included in this calculation.

Hi Sunita, Generally, organizations provide two letters. One is an offer letter given before joining, which only states the CTC. The second is an appointment letter issued when the candidate has joined, providing the full breakdown of his/her CTC. This breakdown helps in calculating the take-home salary. The gratuity component may or may not be included in it.

Of course, it's very important to let candidates know about their allowances and what else is being offered. I agree with Tabaussum that as a candidate, being offered an offer letter before joining and another at the time of joining is crucial. Therefore, it is very important for a candidate to know about their salary breakdown, including all the allowances and perks.
