Salary Structure FAQs

What is the difference between CTC and gross salary?

CTC (Cost to Company) represents the total expense an employer incurs on an employee. This includes elements you never see directly in cash, such as the employer's contribution to EPF, gratuity provisions, health insurance premiums, and other employee benefits. Gross salary is the amount calculated after subtracting non-cash employer provisions (like employer PF) from CTC but before subtracting statutory employee contributions and income tax.

Is standard deduction applicable automatically?

Yes, standard deduction is a flat tax deduction available to all salaried taxpayers and pensioners. For FY 2024-25 and FY 2025-26, it is ₹75,000 for the New Regime, and ₹50,000 for the Old Regime. This has been factored into your calculations automatically based on your regime selection.

How does HRA exemption work in the Old Tax Regime?

HRA (House Rent Allowance) exemption reduces your taxable income under Section 10(13A). It is calculated as the lowest of: (1) actual HRA received, (2) actual rent paid minus 10% of your basic salary, or (3) 50% of basic salary for metro cities (Delhi, Mumbai, Chennai, Kolkata) or 40% for other cities. HRA exemption is not available in the New Tax Regime.
