2. Why First Page Competitors Are Wrong in 2026?
hrengage.ai says wages = Basic + Special Allowance = Rs 72,000 on 50K CTC, but as per Code on Wages (Central) Rules 2026 notified on 8 May 2026, Basic must be at least 50% of total remuneration when DA included. Many companies still keep Basic at 40% to reduce PF liability - we show real calculation.
Salarybox.in says Basic 40-50% of CTC, but does not mention PF Ceiling revised to Rs 25,000/month from 17 Sep 2026. Earlier it was Rs 15,000. So PF deduction = 12% of Rs 25,000 ceiling = Rs 3,000 max, not Rs 1,800. Your In-Hand increases by Rs 1,200 if company follows new ceiling? No, actually PF increases, so In-Hand reduces? We explain.
