## How the 50 LPA in-hand salary works

A 50 LPA package means a cost to company of INR 50 lakh a year. Assuming basic pay at half of CTC (the Labour Codes floor), your employer's 12% PF contribution (INR 3,00,000) and a gratuity provision of 4.81% of basic (INR 1,20,250) sit inside that CTC but never reach your account, so your gross salary is INR 45,79,750, or INR 3,81,646 a month.

From gross, your own 12% PF (INR 3,00,000 a year) and INR 2,500 of professional tax are deducted, along with INR 9,68,682 of income tax in the new regime. That leaves INR 33,08,568 a year, about INR 2,75,714 a month: 66% of your CTC.

Your taxable income after the INR 75,000 standard deduction is INR 45,04,750, which reaches the 30% slab, and tax works out to INR 9,68,682 a year in the new regime (INR 80,724 a month of TDS). In the old regime, with INR 1.5 lakh of 80C, it's INR 11,70,702.

The old regime only beats the new one if your total old-regime deductions (80C including your PF, HRA, 80D health insurance, home-loan interest) come to more than INR 7,99,999 a year. Your PF alone counts for INR 1,50,000 of that.

Compared with 40 LPA (INR 2,28,200 a month), the extra INR 10 lakh of CTC adds INR 47,515 a month to take-home, INR 4,751 for each lakh; the rest goes to PF, gratuity and INR 2,85,776 more tax.

In-hand = CTC − employer PF − gratuity − employee PF − professional tax − income tax

## Worked example: the same 50 LPA with 10% variable pay

Many offers at 50 LPA hold back part of the package as performance pay. With 10% variable (INR 5,00,000), basic is calculated on the fixed part, and take-home is INR 2,47,808 a month before the bonus, or INR 2,80,623 averaged over the year if it's paid in full.

## Good to know

-   If your employer calculates PF on the INR 15,000 statutory wage ceiling instead of full basic, take-home rises by INR 39,162 a month to INR 3,14,876, at the cost of slower EPF savings.
-   If 10% of the package is variable pay, fixed take-home drops to about INR 2,47,808 a month; the bonus arrives separately, taxed, when it's paid.
-   In Delhi, Haryana, Uttar Pradesh and other states without professional tax, add INR 208 a month.
-   Ask for employer NPS at 14% of basic: it's deductible even in the new regime and would cut your tax by about INR 1,09,200 a year.
