This amount is an estimate based on typical salary structures and tax regimes for the financial year 2025-26.
Explanation of 9 LPA Salary Calculation

- Common deductions include:
- Employee Provident Fund (around 12% of the basic salary)
- Income Tax (based on new tax regime, standard deductions apply)
- Professional Tax (varies by state)

Additional Notes
