For a 40 LPA package, the useful question is usually how fixed cash, PF, gratuity and tax combine—not a single generic in-hand percentage. The scenario uses published FY 2026–27 rules and clearly scoped payroll assumptions. It does not model capital gains, rental income, foreign income, stock taxes or employer-specific benefits, all of which need specialist treatment.

What this estimate includes

  • ₹40,00,000 annual CTC with no variable pay.
  • Basic pay is 40% of fixed CTC; PF uses the statutory wage cap.
  • Gratuity is included in CTC; ESI is not modeled for this package.
  • FY 2026–27 new regime, resident salary-only taxpayer under age 60.
  • This static illustration excludes professional tax because no work state is attached.

Change these assumptions in the calculator for your actual basic pay, PF policy, state, variable pay and tax regime.
