Total tax paid
₹ 4,142
Did you know your employer also pays tax on your salary? It costs the employer ₹ 1,578 to pay you ₹ 13,152. In other words, every time you spend ₹ 10 of your hard-earned money, ₹ 3.15 goes to the government.
Real tax rate
28.1%
So, with you and the employer both paying tax, what used to be a 19.5% tax rate now rises to 28.1%, meaning your real tax rate is actually 8.6% higher than what it seemed at first.
