Dear Shalini,
Following are the 4 major components of the sal structure.
1) Basic which is 50% of the Gross.
2) HRA is 50% of Basic
3) Edu Allowance is 20% of basic.
4) Conveyance is 20% of basic
But this braek up varies from Company to company.

Dear Salini ji,

To answer to your query, I am trying it in simple way as under:

In salary sheet, there are main four components. They are:

i. Basic inputs such as rate p.d.or p.m., days payable etc.

ii. Earnings

iii. Deductions &

iv. Net payable.

Earnings means various components of salary worked out on the basis of basic inputs. Components of salary may be Basic, DA / Sp. Allw, HRA and other allowances you give as per the terms of employment. The allowances may be Conveyance, Education, Medical, Washing, shift, Attendance, Leave Travel etc. You can give any kind of allowance. You can nomenclate it by any name depending upon your policy or depending upon your decision. There is no law which compel you to give any allowances other than HRA in some states. In Maharashtra you are liable to pay min. 5 % if you have more than 50 employees.

I repeat, by any law you are not liable to pay any allowance other than HRA in some states. You are liable to pay by law only Basic and DA or consolated salary which should not be less than minimum rate as declared by the local authority. This Basic & DA or consolated salary attract HRA payment and PF deduction. To my view, it is wrong to split the minimum rate as declared by the local authority in to Basic, DA and various allowances or components and deduct PF on lesser amount thus arrived on such split up.

Total of all earning components i.e. Basic, DA, HRA and other allowances is a Gross.

ESI, local Tax on Employment, Labour Welfare Fund, Income Tax all those things attract on Gross. All those things are deductions from Gross which are statutory in nature and depends upon applicability. There may be other kind of deductions which are non statutory in nature.

Dear Mrunal90,
With due respect to you Madam, I totally disagree with your reply to querist. I request you to kindly read my posting as above, in reply to querist which may be helpful in correcting yourself.
There is no compulsion to pay HRA at 50%, Education at 20% and conveyance at 20% as you said. There is no law which says that you have to pay Basic at 50% of the Gross.
However, you can pay such kind of allowances as mentioned by you but the Basic plus DA component should not be less than minimum rate as declared by local authority from time to time. On certain allowances, employee gets income tax benefit.
I do not mean to discourage you. On the contrary, I appreciate your response.
