What is the old rule
Suppose your total annual income i.e. CTC is Rs. 18 lakhs. Under the current rule, the basic salary is 32% of CTC. In this way, the share of basic salary in your monthly CTC should be Rs 48,000. While 50 per cent i.e. HRA of Rs 24000 and after this 10 per cent i.e. Rs 4800 NPS, 12 per cent will be Rs 5760 in Provident Fund. Thus, in a CTC of Rs 1.50 lakh, your monthly salary becomes Rs 82,560 and the remaining Rs 67,440 goes to other things.

Now that the new pay code has been implemented from April 1, you can change the structure of your salary. Under the new law, salary will be adjusted in PF, graduation, inflation allowance, travel allowance and house rent allowance. Basic CTC being 50 per cent means that the allowances will not exceed 50 per cent, similarly changes in PF and other allowances will also reduce the tax burden.

51 Decision to exclude allowances
In fact every aspect was examined before the new wage code was implemented in the cabinet.

Graduation is available only after working for 5 consecutive years in a company but under the new law, employees will be entitled to gratuity only after working for 1 year.
