Monthly take-home pay, CTC breakup and income tax for a ₹7,00,000 package.
How your salary structure changes the in-hand amount
| Salary structure | Monthly in-hand |
|---|
| Basic 50% of CTC, full PF (12% of basic) | ₹49,730 |
| Basic 50% of CTC, PF capped at ₹1,800/month | ₹53,130 |
| Basic 40% of CTC, full PF | ₹51,411 |
A higher basic salary means more goes into PF (your savings) and less comes home each month. If your employer caps PF at the statutory wage limit of ₹15,000, your monthly take-home rises.
