Hi Roopal,
Yes, you have asked a very relevant question, but can you give us a CTC figure of which you have to prepare a break-up.
Anyways, the Basic would be approximately 40 - 50% of the gross, and 40 - 60% of that would be HRA. Conveyance Allowance is fixed at 800/- and is exempted from Tax. Educational Allowance is approximately 450 per child and is restricted up to 2 only. Medical allowance is 1250/-, which is also exempted from tax. LTA that you may include in gross or better leave it out from gross as you may pay it on an actual basis. Other allowances make up the remaining amount to complete the Gross salary, i.e.,
Other Allowance = Gross - (Basic + HRA + CA + Medical + Edu All)
So, we can say Gross Salary = Basic + HRA + CA + Med + Edu + Other Allowance.
Out of this, only two components may be deducted: one is PF, which would be 12% of Basic, and ESI 1.75% of the gross if the Gross is below 10,000/-.
Regarding TDS, with this financial budget, the ceiling has been increased from 1,00,000/- to 1,10,000/-.
Above, I have explained only regarding the Gross/Month. Regarding CTC, you have to do some more exercise -
First, Calculate Gross/Annum = 12 * Gross/Month,
then add Ex-Gratia or Bonus in a lump sum; it will now become AFGC (Annual Fixed Gross Cost).
Then, add PF contribution and ESI 4.75% of Gross if applicable from the employer's side per annum, then it comes to your CTC or ATC.
It means CTC = Gross/Annum + Ex-Gratia + PF & ESI contribution.
If any other benefits are being provided from the company's side, then you should also add them to conclude your CTC.
Hope it is now very clear to you. If you have any queries, feel free to revert.
