Hi,
Actually, I just started working. This month, I got my salary. There is great confusion as both the employee and employer contributions are deducted from my salary. I want to know why they have deducted the employer's contribution from my salary.
My CTC is 15000 per month. Please tell me what should be my take-home.

Parul, Have a look at your appt letter and CTC classification. Many companies include both contributions under CTC. Pon

This is for everyone:
Example: CTC--15000. The basic will differ from state to state. As per Hyderabad, the basic is 40% of CTC. Therefore, 40% of CTC amounts to 6000. From 6k, deduct 12% for employer's contributions, which equals 720. So, 15000-720=14280. Your gross salary is 14280.
From the gross amount, your contribution of 12% will be deducted, along with professional tax and ESI (Applicable for below 15700/-). LTA depends on individual interest.

Hi Parul,
As Pon suggested, many companies have this practice of deducting both employee and employer share from the CTC, but these things should be discussed at the time of negotiations. I have been telling many people about the same, that during negotiation, they should be aware of their compensation package and deductions, as it can affect your take-home salary. Try talking to HR again and if possible, request them for renegotiation... i.e., increasing the CTC by the amount they will be deducting as the employer share. It is possible.

Dear Friend,
Please try to understand the difference between Nett Salary, Gross Salary, and CTC. Your Employer PF, Employer ESI, Bonus, approximate & confirmed Ex-gratia per annum, LTC/LTA, everything is considered as a cost to the Company. In Gross, the above will not be there, but all the deductions will be available. Nett Salary is the emolument that you carry home.
Thank you.

Companies' contribution to PF should be at 12% of Basic+DA. Out of it, 8.33% will go to EPS (Max Rs 542). The company should contribute on its own, and it should not be deducted from the salary of the employee. However, CTC is the cost to the company on anyone's employment, and it includes all the contributions made by the company on behalf of the employee. The terms of appointment should also be considered.
