A ₹10 LPA (₹10,00,000) CTC is approximately ₹71,129 per month in-hand. That's about ₹8,53,550 per year after PF, professional tax and income tax under the new regime (FY 2026-27).
If your offer letter says ₹10 LPA, the number that lands in your bank account each month is noticeably lower — because CTC (Cost to Company) bundles in your employer's PF contribution, gratuity, and the taxes deducted before you're paid. For a ₹10 LPA package, the realistic monthly take-home is around ₹71,129. Below is the complete breakdown so you know exactly where every rupee goes.
| Annual CTC | ₹10,00,000 |
| Basic salary (50% of CTC) | ₹5,00,000 |
| Employer PF (in CTC) | − ₹60,000 |
| Gratuity (in CTC) | − ₹24,050 |
| Gross salary | ₹9,15,950 |
| Employee PF (deduction) | − ₹60,000 |
| Professional tax | − ₹2,400 |
| Income tax + cess (new regime) | − ₹0 |
| Net annual in-hand | ₹8,53,550 |
| Net monthly in-hand | ₹71,129 |
This calculation assumes the most common Indian salary structure: a basic salary of 50% of CTC, the employer's 12% PF contribution and gratuity (4.81% of basic) counted inside the CTC, and the new tax regime for FY 2026-27 (income up to ₹12 lakh is effectively tax-free via the Section 87A rebate, plus a ₹75,000 standard deduction). Your actual figure can vary by a few thousand rupees depending on your company's structure, your city's professional tax, and any allowances. At ₹10 LPA, the Section 87A rebate wipes out your income tax entirely — every rupee of the gap between your CTC and your in-hand pay comes from PF and gratuity, not tax, so there's no tax-planning lever left to pull here.

A ₹10 LPA CTC gives an approximate in-hand of ₹71,129 per month (about ₹8,53,550 per year) under the new tax regime for FY 2026-27, after employee PF, professional tax and income tax.
Under the new regime for FY 2026-27, a ₹10 LPA salary attracts effectively ₹0 income tax, because taxable income stays within the ₹12 lakh Section 87A rebate limit after the standard deduction.
Because CTC includes your employer's PF and gratuity, which you never receive in cash, and your monthly pay is further reduced by your own PF, professional tax and TDS. So ₹10,00,000 ÷ 12 = ₹83,333 on paper, but the real take-home is ₹71,129.
