Real tax rate

So, with you and the employer both paying tax, what used to be a 34.2% tax rate now rises to 41.2%, meaning your real tax rate is actually 7% higher than what it seemed at first.
Summary
If you make ₹ 2,159,993 a year living in India, you will be taxed ₹ 738,117. That means that your net pay will be ₹ 1,421,876 per year, or ₹ 118,490 per month. Your average tax rate is 34.2% and your marginal tax rate is 43.2%. This marginal tax rate means that your immediate additional income will be taxed at this rate. For instance, an increase of ₹ 100 in your salary will be taxed ₹ 43.20, hence, your net pay will only increase by ₹ 56.80.
