Hi,
I am Harika, and I am working as an HR executive. I am currently facing a problem with salary calculation. My superiors provide me with the employee's take-home pay, and I need to determine both the gross salary and the CTC. It is challenging for me to figure this out. Please help me with this issue.

Hi Harika,
We have attached the CTC calculator herewith for your reference. You can enter the salary details in the yellow highlighted cells, and the calculator will automatically show the net take-home salary, gross, and CTC.
Two important things need to be updated from your end:
- PT slab as per the applicability in your TN location needs to be input by you in the calculator.
- GPA insurance premium cost per employee, if any, needs to be input by you in the calculator.
If you need any clarification, please contact us.
Thanks.

Dear Sunihaji,
1. Components of Cost to Company (CTC):
- CTC is basically the sum total of Direct Benefits (sum paid to an employee on a yearly basis), Indirect Benefits (sum the employer pays on behalf of the employee), and Saving Contributions (saving schemes the employee is entitled to).
CTC = Direct Benefits + Indirect Benefits + Savings Contributions
A) DIRECT BENEFITS
- Basic Salary
-Dearness Allowance (DA)
-Conveyance Allowance
-House Rent Allowance (HRA)
-Medical Allowance
-Leave Travel Allowance (LTA)
-Vehicle Allowance
-Telephone/ Mobile Phone Allowance
-Incentives or bonuses
-Special Allowance/ City Compensatory allowance, etc.
B) INDIRECT BENEFITS
- Interest Free Loans
- Food Coupons/Subsidized meals
- Company Leased Accommodation
-Medical and Life Insurance premiums paid by employer
-Income Tax Savings
-Office Space Rent
C) SAVINGS CONTRIBUTION
-Superannuation benefits
- Employer Provident Fund (EPF)
-Gratuity
### Let’s elucidate what CTC looks like with an example:
Mr. A has been hired by a company at a CTC of Rs.4, 00,000. A breakdown of his yearly income is illustrated below:
Basic Salary: Rs.2, 20,000
HRA: Rs.88, 000
CA: Rs.19, 200
Medical Expenses: Rs.15, 000
EPF Contributions: Rs.21, 600 (@12%
Gratuity: Rs.18, 326
Special Allowance: Rs.17, 874
2. Gross Salary:
Gross Salary is employee provident fund (EPF) and gratuity subtracted from the Cost to Company (CTC). To put it in simpler terms, Gross Salary is the amount paid before deduction of taxes or other deductions and is inclusive of bonuses, over-time pay, holiday pay, and other differentials.
### For the same example listed above, let’s deduce Mr. A yearly salary by subtracting gratuity and Employee Provident Fund contributions.
Rs.4, 00,000 - Rs.21, 600 - Rs.18, 326 = Rs.3, 60,074
This amount will now be considered as his gross salary, which is his total personal income before taking taxes and other deductions into consideration.
3. Net Salary or Take-Home Salary:
-Net salary, more commonly known as Take-Home Salary, is the income that the employee actually takes home once tax and other such deductions are carried over with. It refers to the in-hand figure that is calculated after deducting Income Tax at source (TDS) and other deductions as per the relevant company policy.
-Net Salary is Income Tax deductions, Public Provident Fund, and Professional Tax subtracted from gross salary, which means,
Net Salary = Gross Salary (-) Income Tax (-) Public Provident Fund (-) Professional Tax
*** Employee Provident Fund are a stipulated percentage of the employee’s salary, typically no less than 12% of the basic salary. Whereas, gratuity is a percentage of the basic salary, typically 4.81% of the employee’s basic salary.
### Mr. A’s Salary Example:
In Mr. A’s case, he comes under the 10% tax slab as his salary falls between the Rs. 2,50,001- Rs. 5,00,000 range.
Mr. A’s income stands at Rs.3, 60,074.
10% of Mr. A’s income would come up to Rs.36, 007.4.
So, Mr. A’s income after tax and other deductions would be Rs.3, 24,066.6

I hope It will be helpful in CTC Designing.

Hi Harika,
Firstly, why should your superior make you find the gross/CTC by giving you the net pay? It would have been okay if it were the other way around. The deductions and the breakup are purely based on the compensation structured in your organization.
At CONNECTONE DYNAMIC, the attachment is not generic. It might help in understanding your organization's breakup.

Adding to the above comments, please check with your boss about the standard deductions (statutory, employee welfare, etc.) applicable as per your company policy. Every company has a different salary structure and deduction heads; therefore, there is no universal format applicable to all.
Over and above, the theoretical concept explained above by my friends is self-explanatory. Trust it will resolve your queries now.
