1. What is Monthly In-Hand Salary?

The monthly in-hand salary is the actual amount an employee receives after all deductions from the Cost to Company (CTC). It represents the net amount deposited in the employee's bank account each month.

2. How Does the Calculator Work?

The calculator uses the following formula:

Where:

• \( CTC \) — Cost to Company (annual package)
• \( Income Tax \) — Annual tax deductions
• \( PF \) — Provident Fund contributions
• \( Professional Tax \) — State professional tax
• \( Other Deductions \) — Any other annual deductions

Explanation: The formula subtracts all annual deductions from the CTC and divides by 12 to get the monthly amount.

3. Importance of Salary Calculation

Details: Understanding your in-hand salary helps in financial planning, budgeting, and comparing job offers. It shows the actual amount you'll receive after all mandatory deductions.

4. Using the Calculator

Tips: Enter all values in the same currency. Make sure to include all deductions that apply to your salary structure. The calculator assumes equal monthly payments.
