Did you know your employer also pays tax on your salary? It costs the employer ₹ 1,041 to pay you ₹ 8,678. In other words, every time you spend ₹ 10 of your hard-earned money, ₹ 6.19 goes to the government.
Real tax rate
55.2%
So, with you and the employer both paying tax, what used to be a 49.9% tax rate now rises to 55.2%, meaning your real tax rate is actually 5.3% higher than what it seemed at first.
Summary
If you make ₹ 21,660,288 a year living in India, you will be taxed ₹ 10,802,997. That means that your net pay will be ₹ 10,857,291 per year, or ₹ 904,774 per month. Your average tax rate is 49.9% and your marginal tax rate is 51.0%. 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 ₹ 51, hence, your net pay will only increase by ₹ 49.
Bonus Example
A ₹ 1,000 bonus will generate an extra ₹ 490 of net incomes. A ₹ 5,000 bonus will generate an extra ₹ 2,450 of net incomes.
