Monthly take-home, side by side

Gross pay is only half the story. NPS at 10 per cent of basic plus DA, the CGHS subscription for your level and the flat CGEGIS premium come off before the salary reaches your account. Income tax and any union subscription sit on top of these.

Worth knowing: the government adds another ₹79,800 a month at 14 per cent of your projected basic plus DA. It never appears in your salary slip, but it builds your pension corpus. Annual projected in-hand works out to roughly ₹78,84,960.
