Worked example for this page
For an annual CTC of ₹42,00,000, this page estimates roughly ₹2,41,650 per month in-hand after employee PF (₹5,04,000 per year), professional tax ₹2,400, and simplified old-regime income tax of about ₹7,93,800 with the standard ₹50,000 deduction.
Actual take-home varies with HRA exemption, 80C investments, new vs old tax regime selection, and employer-specific allowances. Use this breakdown as a negotiation benchmark before accepting an offer letter.
Adjust the PF percentage slider on the calculator if your company caps PF on a lower basic salary. Metro employees with full HRA exemption may see higher in-hand than shown here.
