Quick answer: under SalaryExit's default scenario for this page (new regime, state PT placeholder, PF derived from an assumed Basic+DA split), estimated monthly in-hand is roughly ₹72,991.67 before any additional payroll items not modeled here.
₹9 LPA sits in the middle of a zero-tax band — income tax remains nil under both old and new regimes. Many professionals at this band start accumulating meaningful PF balance and question whether to make VPF contributions. The short answer: VPF reduces in-hand by exactly as much as you contribute but delivers 8%+ compounding in a tax-free instrument.

Annual tax + cess (engine estimate): ₹0.
Band-specific context (not duplicated on other LPA pages). Still illustrative — tune the calculators for your payslip.
Engine warnings: In-hand is an estimate: actual TDS may differ due to proofs, perquisites, arrears, and surcharges. The monthly TDS line is annual tax ÷ 12 for planning — not a payslip TDS schedule.

At lower gross, rent is usually the first lever that swallows savings.
PF, PT, and regime still move the needle before you spend a rupee on rent.
Editorial note. SalaryExit publishes educational estimates with stated assumptions — not tax filing advice, legal opinions, or employer-certified payroll. Read the methodology and disclaimer. FY 2026–27 (AY 2027–28) tax slabs in engine. Site content last reviewed: June 2026. Calculator tax math was last aligned to Union Budget 2026 — no slab changes; new regime slabs from Budget 2025 continue; Section 87A (≤₹12L taxable); std. deduction ₹75,000; cess 4%. Surcharge and marginal relief are not modeled — validate Form 16 and CBDT circulars for filing.
~₹73,000/month under the new tax regime. Zero income tax (Section 87A rebate covers full liability at ₹9L gross). Deductions: employee PF ₹1,800/month + professional tax ~₹208/month.
₹9 LPA (₹73,000/month in-hand) is comfortable in tier-2 cities and manageable in metros with shared accommodation or reasonable rent. It falls within the zero-tax zone, which means your employer's salary structure (Basic+DA split, flexi-pay components) determines your in-hand more than your tax bracket does.

Not always. CTC may include employer contributions and non-cash costs. This page interprets the band as annual gross salary for the illustrated scenario unless you change inputs in the calculator.
Payslips reflect actual TDS smoothing, proofs, perquisites, bonuses, and employer-specific PF definitions. This page shows a single transparent scenario using the centralized engine.
This illustration uses the new regime for a common baseline. Compare regimes explicitly using the tax regime calculator and validate with a qualified professional for filing.
