Hello Shankar Ravi,
I liked the posting you have made, but I am not clear on the concept of CCA & CON. Could you please highlight the same?
Also, I would like to mention that the Professional Tax is Rs. 200 throughout the year, except in February, where it is Rs. 300. It would be great if you could include this in the post.
Thanks,
Shriya Karve.

Very good. But I have a suggestion. Please do not show the employer's contribution to EPF/ESI in the payslip. I agree that these are costs to the company, but showing it in the payslip will be interpreted as deducting the employer's share of contribution from the salary of employees, which is illegal.
Similarly, annual payments based on profits like Bonus (which is paid only to those whose salary does not exceed Rs 10,000) should also be avoided in the monthly payslip. Once it is shown, it becomes a commitment on the part of the employer.
I didn't understand the practice of adding 20% of the basic salary (I presume) as part of CTC and then showing 8.33% as a deduction. Please clarify.

CCA stands for City Compensation Allowance at 10% of the basic salary. Con. refers to Conveyance at 10% of the basic salary.
One more thing to note is that I am unsure if the P.T. slab has changed. To the best of my knowledge, the P.T. slab has been revised to start from Rs. 5001/-. Could you please confirm if this information is correct? If you have any updates, kindly inform me.
Thank you,

Mr. Madhu,
In the CTC scale, 20% of the bonus is calculated on the basic salary, and 11.73% shall be added to every month's salary. The remaining 8.33% (approximately one basic salary per year) shall be given once a year. Also, note that, apart from ESI & PT deductions, the remaining deduction shows as savings.
I hope you understand.

Hi Shankar, I was about to ask about what Madhu asked. I have gone through your reply but still it is not clear to me. Can you please elaborate about percentage for bonus (20 % - 8.33%...) - Hiten

Dear Mr. Shankar,
I am very sorry; I could not follow you. 20% and 8.33% are the maximum and the minimum bonus payable as per the Payment of Bonus Act. Any percentage of bonus above 8.33% will be decided only after considering the 'available surplus,' which in turn depends on the net profit as shown by the Profit & Loss account. How can an employee say that he will be able to pay a 20% bonus every year? Of course, 8.33% is a statutory bonus that has to be paid even if the company incurs a loss. Therefore, it is justifiable to show the amount of the minimum bonus as part of the remuneration to the employee. (I prefer not to use the term "Cost to Company" because there are many benefits to the company as well due to the employment of a worker.)
I did not mean to disturb your system, but I meant to say that showing the employer's share of contributions to EPF/ESI could be interpreted as deducting his own share from the salary, which is illegal. Above all, the practice of "CTC" itself is a game to attract poor candidates as it gives a good picture, but in reality, nothing actually materializes.

Dear Friend,
Basic: 55%
House Rental Allowance: 25%
City Compensation Allowance: 10%
Conveyance: 10%
Total (Gross): 100%
Company Contributions:
Bonus: 20% on basic
PF: 12% on basic (if basic is Rs. 6500/-, the company fixes Rs. 780/-)
ESI: 4.75% on basic
Total, called CTC: 100% + 36.75%
Employee Contributions:
PF: 12% on basic
ESI: 1.75% on basic
PT: depends on gross
Now, your doubt is that in 20% of the bonus, 11.73% shall be added to his salary (called advance bonus), i.e., 8.33% shall be deducted from every month's salary. The same may be given once a month. Here, the company has fixed the CTC and is not involved in any kind of payment modes.
Thank you,

Dear all i also agree with Madhu, if you will show Bonus on monthly, than it will attract the PF calculation amount, in this case PF amount will increase.

My dear Shankar,
Is a salary slip (the so-called CTC) just to show a huge figure by adding up what other costs the employer will incur due to the employment of one person? Then why is the PF contribution restricted to 12% of 6500 only? If PF is deducted from the whole, then naturally, the employer should contribute to the same extent. (Only segregation of PF amount to Provident Fund and Pension Fund takes a different treatment.)
I am still confused about the bonus treatment. I agree that a bonus is a part of CTC, and if you want to show it as part of the salary, you can. But my concern is relating to the percentage of the bonus, which is purely dependent on production and profit.

Dear Shankarravik,
The PT slab for Andhra Pradesh changed w.e.f. 1-1-2008. There is no PT up to 5000; the rest is okay. This salary adjustment will help junior staff. What about senior staff? I suggest we should give them 45% or 50% HRA so that if they are claiming rent, they will benefit.

Hi,
The thought of creating such a calculator is appreciated and valued. However, there are a few points that require thorough checking. For instance, you have set the basic pay at almost 70% of the gross salary, but in reality, no private company sets the basic at 70%. The industry standard typically ranges between 45-60%, with 50% of the gross being the norm.
Regarding the bonus liability at 8.33%, it is only applicable up to a gross salary of Rs. 10,000, beyond which there is no compulsion on the employer. Additionally, it is important to note that the bonus is paid based on the employee's salary and not just the basic pay.

Hi,
The CTC break up is fine except that the Bonus should be Rs. 3500 per year (for 8.33%), i.e., Rs. 292 per month for employees drawing a Basic salary of Rs. 3500 and above. Furthermore, you can also show the premium for Gratuity, which is normally 4.25% of the basic salary.

Good Dear, Now the Govt. has a change the PT. rate.0-3k Nil, 3k-6k 80, 6k-9k = 100, 9k-10k=150,>12k =200. As per my information, Pls check and update in yoursheet.
Let me tell you all, as per the Income Tax Act, HRA should be 40% of the basic, and in metro cities, it should be 50%.
I think the format needs to be revised and verified.
