What is a CTC Calculator?

A CTC Calculator is a tool that helps break down the “Cost to Company” (CTC), which is the total amount a company spends on employing an individual in a year, into its detailed components such as Basic Salary, House Rent Allowance (HRA), Leave Travel Allowance (LTA), employer contributions, benefits, and other allowances.

CTC includes salary credited to the account plus all other benefits and contributions made by the employer on behalf of the employee.

PF 12% of Basic, Gratuity 4.81% of Basic.
