How this calculator works

CTC looks big on the offer letter. In-hand is what hits your account after PF, professional tax, and other cuts.

This calculator uses a simple 40% basic assumption for EPF — adjust toggles to match your offer.

  1. Enter annual CTC.
  2. Choose Employee EPF yes/no.
  3. Optionally include an income-tax estimate and regime.

Formula

Monthly gross ≈ CTC ÷ 12. EPF ≈ 12% of (40% of CTC ÷ 12) when enabled. Maharashtra professional tax is applied by default. In-hand ≈ monthly gross − EPF − PT − (optional annual tax ÷ 12).
