How it works

From CTC to take-home in three steps

The same steps every time, so you can check them against your own payslip.

Start from your CTC

Take out the employer's PF if it is inside your CTC. What remains is your gross salary.

Work out the tax

Subtract the standard deduction, apply the new regime slabs, the rebate and the 4% cess.

Deduct and see what is left

Remove employee PF, professional tax and income tax. The result is your monthly take-home.
