How This Bihar Salary Calculator Works
Set your DA rate, choose your posting location for HRA, and adjust transport, medical, GIS, or other recurring deductions.
Generate a salary estimate to compare gross salary, NPS and deduction recovery, and your expected Bihar take-home pay.
This calculator starts with your current basic pay and adds a user-editable DA rate, city-based HRA, transport allowance, and medical allowance. It then subtracts a standard NPS deduction and a simple professional tax assumption before applying any extra monthly deductions you enter.
It is designed to be more practical than a fixed one-size-fits-all salary sheet. If your department uses slightly different allowances, you can still use this page by editing the inputs to reflect your own payroll setup. You can also start from an optional pay-level entry pay and then adjust the basic pay manually if needed.
Current Bihar Assumptions Used
If you want to cross-check Bihar planning against the central stack, move next to the 7th CPC Salary Calculator, DA Calculator, HRA Calculator, and Tax Calculator. If you are comparing state patterns instead, the Maharashtra and Rajasthan pages are the closest next checks.
Optional Pay Level Entry
You can start from a common pay-level entry pay and then override the basic pay field if your actual cell or increment position is different.
Editable DA Rate
The page uses a default planning DA rate of 58%, but the field is editable so you can align it with your own salary slip or the latest Bihar order you are using.
HRA by City Class
It uses a practical Bihar HRA split of 20% for Y-class cities and 10% for Z-class cities for planning.
NPS and Tax Logic
NPS or CPS is estimated at 10% of basic pay plus DA. Professional tax is estimated using annual-income style Bihar slabs, and a GIS / insurance field is also included for planning.
