Frequently asked questions

What counts as earnings vs deductions?

Earnings are everything paid to the employee — basic, HRA, special and other allowances, plus any bonus or overtime. Deductions are amounts withheld — provident fund, professional tax, income tax (TDS) and any other recoveries.

Is this gross or net pay?

Both. Gross is the sum of all earnings before anything is withheld; net (in-hand) pay is what’s left after every deduction. The tool shows gross, total deductions and net side by side.

Does it calculate income tax for me?

No — income tax depends on your full annual income, regime and declarations, so you enter the monthly TDS figure yourself. The tool then subtracts it along with the other deductions.

How do I calculate net salary or take-home pay?

Net salary, or take-home pay, is gross earnings minus every deduction. Enter your basic, HRA and allowances as earnings, then PF, professional tax and TDS as deductions — this payroll calculator instantly shows your monthly in-hand salary.

Is this payroll calculator free to use?

Yes — this online payroll calculator is completely free with no sign-up. Use it to work out gross pay, total deductions and net take-home salary for any employee in seconds.

Can I use it to make a salary slip or payslip?

Yes. The payroll calculator breaks pay into earnings, deductions and net pay — the exact structure of a salary slip — so you can use the figures to prepare an accurate payslip for your employees.

Is my data sent anywhere?

No. Everything is calculated in your browser with JavaScript — nothing you enter is uploaded.
