How This Punjab Calculator Works

01

Choose a Punjab pay level or enter your current basic pay, then adjust the DA rate if your latest salary slip or order uses a different figure.

02

Select the Punjab HRA category that fits your location, then review transport, mobile, medical, GIS, development tax, and deduction fields before calculation.

03

Generate a salary estimate to compare gross salary, deductions, and expected Punjab in-hand salary for planning.

This page estimates salary by combining basic pay, DA, HRA, transport allowance, mobile allowance, and medical allowance, then subtracting NPS, GIS, development tax, and any additional deductions you add.

The page keeps the original Punjab salary-planning intent while making the result easier to scan. It should still be treated as a planning layer rather than an official payroll calculation.

Current Planning Assumptions Used

Punjab salary planning is easier to verify when you compare it with the central allowance stack on the 7th CPC, DA, HRA, and tax pages. For state-level comparison, the Kerala and Rajasthan calculators help you see where Punjab-specific HRA and deduction naming diverge.

Editable DA

The page starts with an editable paid-rate planning DA input. Update the field to match your latest Punjab salary slip or applicable order.

Punjab HRA Categories

It uses Category A, B, C, and D HRA treatment with 24%, 16%, 10%, and 8% planning rates.

Punjab Allowance Naming

The calculator includes mobile allowance, transport allowance, and medical allowance so the result feels closer to a Punjab salary slip.

Deductions

NPS is estimated at 10% of basic pay plus DA, with GIS, development tax, and any user-entered recoveries layered into the deduction view.
