Frequently Asked Questions
What is the difference between CTC and take-home salary?
CTC includes all costs the employer bears — basic salary, HRA, allowances, PF contributions, and insurance. Take-home salary is the amount credited to your bank account after all employee-side deductions.
How is HRA calculated?
HRA is typically forty to fifty percent of basic salary, depending on the company's compensation policy. The actual HRA exemption for tax purposes is computed based on rent paid, basic salary, and city classification.
Can I model different CTC structures?
Yes. Adjust the basic salary percentage and allowance allocations to model different CTC structures and see how each configuration impacts the net take-home salary.
Is my salary data stored?
No. All CTC figures, component allocations, and computed salary amounts are processed in-memory within your browser. No compensation data is transmitted externally.
