All guidesHRA Exemption Explained: How to Calculate It and Save Tax
Under Section 10(13A) and Rule 2A, your exempt HRA is the lowest of three statutory amounts: actual HRA received, 50% of basic salary (40% in non-metros), or actual rent paid minus 10% of basic. For an employee with ₹50,000 monthly basic receiving ₹25,000 HRA and paying ₹20,000 rent in a metro, exempt HRA is ₹15,000 monthly (₹1,80,000/year). In the top 30% tax bracket (+ 4% cess), this saves ₹56,160 in tax, or ₹37,440 in the 20% bracket.
CTC vs In-Hand Salary: Why Your Take-Home Is Lower
A ₹12,00,000 annual CTC (Cost to Company) does not mean ₹1,00,000 credited to your bank account monthly. After deducting employer PF (₹4,800/mo), gratuity provisions (₹1,924/mo), employee PF (₹4,800/mo), and professional tax (₹200/mo), your pre-tax monthly take-home is ₹88,276. Under the revised New Tax Regime (FY 2024-25) with the ₹75,000 standard deduction, income tax TDS is ~₹4,900/mo, leaving around ₹83,300 to ₹85,000 in hand (or over ₹86,000 if PF is capped at the statutory ₹1,800 limit).
Gratuity Rules: Who Gets It and How It's Calculated

Calculated as (15 × Last Drawn Basic + DA × Completed Years) / 26, an employee with ₹60,000 basic salary and 8 years of tenure receives ₹2,76,923, which is 100% tax-free under Section 10(10).
