Hi Amar,

Cost to Company can be used to refer to the total cost that an organization is spending towards their employees, including the salary, perks, costs related to benefits, costs related to hiring, training, retirals, statutory contributions, etc. In general, the CTC can be defined as:

CTC = Direct benefits + Indirect benefits + Saving Contributions

You can also use the research tab provided here to help you go through different threads discussed on the same topic earlier.

In humorous terms, "Cost to company" is a trick of a company and the HR department to show that they are paying a big salary, but unfortunately, it is just a bubble :)
