Dear Mam,
CTC refers to "COST TO COMPANY "
this includes : GROSS SALARY + incentives that are provided from the firm .
incentives includes many things like meal , medical facilities, phone facilities, house facilities , travel allowance etc.
THE SUM OF ALL THE REWARDS AND BENEFITS PROVIDED TO AN EMPLOYEE FROM THE EMPLOYER + THE SALARY IS TERMED AS "COST TO COMPANY"
hope this satisfies your query.
Regards,

Dear Ms. Neha,
Just to add info - Gross Salary is the headline salary that an employee is paid prior to any deductions. Net Salary is what is actually paid into employees bank account and Cost to Cmpany includes Goss salary plus the Medical, Bonus, LTA and other annual emoluments paid to the employee by the company.

Hello Neha
Gross Salary means Salary before any deduction i.e. before PF, ESIC, Insurance, etc.
CTC means cost for the employee that includes in his/her salary
like
PF (both Employee and employer)
ESIC (both Employee and employer)
Insurance if any
any other non cash or cash payout all includes in CTC
in short any cost to retain that employee is CTC

CTC: is cost to company which includes BASIC + HRA+ ALLOWANCES+ REIMBURSEMENT+ BONUS+ GRADUITY+TRANSPORT FACILITIY+ MOBILE+ CREDIT CARD PAYMENT TOWARDS TRAVEL EXPENSES + CONTRIBUTION TOWARDS PF + ESI + MEDICAL/ACCIDENT INSURANCE etc, each and everything which Employer spends on Employee.
GROSS SALARY: Salary before statuory deductions(-- such as PF, ESI, TDS, PT etc).
NET SALARY : Take home in the form of cheque or cash after statuory deductions.
I hope above will suffice your query.

In these things have a huge differences. In CTC consists a that amount which spends on a employee in any manner..
Gross Salary is the part of the Monthly Salary without considering the annual Benefits.......
Net Salary is that what you get in hand.........
