In-hand salary calculation: how much you take home on Rs 5 lakh to Rs 20 lakh CTC under the new rules

- Where basic is already 50% of CTC, in-hand pay does not change.
- Employers that restrict PF to the wage ceiling keep in-hand pay steadier; the ceiling rose from Rs 15,000 to Rs 25,000 a month on 17 September 2026, after this article, so the restricted contribution is now Rs 3,000 a month, not Rs 1,800.
- Gratuity in CTC is paid only after five years of service.
