What is CTC and what is in-hand?

CTC (Cost to Company) is the full annualised employer outlay — fixed salary, bonus, employer PF, gratuity provision, insurance. In-hand is what hits your bank account after employee PF, professional tax and TDS.

This calculator estimates the standard split: 40% Basic, 50% of basic as HRA, 8.3% LTA, balance as special allowance. Exact splits vary by company.

CTC includes employer PF (12% of basic), gratuity provision, insurance premiums and bonus. Up to 25% of CTC can be non-cash components.
Maximise NPS via employer (80CCD(2)), use food/meal vouchers in old regime, claim full HRA if you rent.
