Understanding CTC Components

CTC (Cost to Company) is the total amount an employer spends on an employee. However, the amount you receive in your bank account (Take-Home) is lower due to various deductions and non-cash components.

Basic Salary

This is the fixed part of your salary and forms the basis for other components like PF, Gratuity, and HRA. It is typically 40-50% of the total CTC and is fully taxable.

House Rent Allowance (HRA)

Provided to meet the cost of a rented house. You can claim tax exemption on HRA if you live in a rented accommodation and have rent receipts.

Employee Provident Fund (EPF)

A mandatory deduction where 12% of your Basic is contributed to your PF account. The employer also contributes an equal amount (split between EPF and EPS).

Special Allowance

Often used as a balancing figure to meet the promised CTC after accounting for all other components. It is fully taxable.

Take-Home vs CTC

Take-Home Salary = Gross Salary - (Employee PF + Professional Tax + Income Tax). Our calculator helps you estimate this by automating the complex deduction logic used by Indian HR departments.
