There are no standard norms or percentages to fix the basic salary. It can be determined based on the designations and the minimum wages that are supposed to be paid to the specific category of workers as per the regulations in force.

Establishing a Standard Percentage

You can establish a standard percentage (e.g., 40% or 50%) from the CTC or Gross salary to ensure that the basic salary aligns with the aforementioned criteria.
