Salary and pension are part of one’s right to life and liberty under the Indian Constitution. Every employee receives an income statement on the payday where the term basic salary is highlighted.
This basic salary is the amount an employee receives before deduction or the addition of factors such as tax, allowance, bonus, etc.
Keep reading to understand this concept in detail.
Basic salary is the primary payment given to an employee by their employer against his/her performance. It is the amount apart from surplus or additional factors, such as bonuses, benefits or compensation from an employer's end.
Employers and employees negotiate and arrive at this amount while signing the job agreement. This structure is a part of an employee's compensation structure and varies according to his/her designation. This basic salary can increase yearly if an individual's appointment is made based on the pay scale.
Individuals should know that the basic salary percentage and type can differ according to industry type.
For instance, individuals working in the IT sector can opt for an in-hand wage or take-home salary. In contrast, an employee in the manufacturing sector may receive fringe benefits.
This factor is entirely dependent on employee strength and experience.

On the other hand, basic pay is a fixed portion of an individual’s monthly salary before all deductions.
The formula for gross pay is as follows.
Gross pay = Basic pay + HRA + DA + medical + conveyance + other allowances
However, if an individual knows the gross pay, then they can easily find the basic salary with the given formula
Basic salary = Gross salary - DA - HRA - conveyance - medical - other allowances
However, if an employment contract defines gross pay as a percentage of basic salary, then the formula will be -
Basic pay = Mentioned percentage x Gross pay
This is the right formula to calculate basic salary percentages.
