Frequently asked questions

Why is my in-hand so much lower than CTC?

CTC includes employer PF, gratuity and sometimes insurance or bonuses that are not paid monthly. Tax and your own PF are then deducted from gross pay.

What is professional tax?

A state tax on employment, up to ₹2,500 a year. Some states, like Delhi and Haryana, do not charge it.
