Detailed Salary Calculation Formula for Rajasthan State Employees
The standard payroll algorithm implemented across Rajasthan Treasury and Integrated Financial Management System calculates monthly remuneration through the following established formulas:
- Gross Monthly Salary = Basic Pay + Dearness Allowance (63% of Basic) + House Rent Allowance (20% for Y-Class cities or 10% for Z-Class cities) + Medical Allowance + Transport / Special Allowances (where sanctioned).
- Mandatory Statutory Deductions = NPS Employee Contribution (10% of [Basic + DA]) + Professional Tax (₹0) + Group Insurance Scheme (GIS) + Income Tax TDS (as per selected regime).
- Net Take-Home In-Hand Pay = Gross Monthly Salary − Total Mandatory Deductions.
