Payslip Sections
Your payslip has four main sections:
1. Employee Information
| Field | Description |
|---|---|
| Employee Name | Your full name as registered |
| Employee ID | Your Omnivoo employee ID |
| Designation | Your job title |
| Department | Your department |
| PAN | Your PAN number (masked) |
| UAN | Your Universal Account Number for PF |
| Bank Account | Your salary account (masked) |
| Pay Period | Month and year |
| Paid Days | Working days in the month minus unpaid leave |
| LOP Days | Loss of Pay days (unpaid leave taken) |
2. Earnings
| Component | What It Means |
|---|---|
| Basic Salary | 50% of your annual CTC, divided by 12 |
| HRA | House Rent Allowance (40-50% of Basic) |
| Special Allowance | Balancing taxable component |
| Other Allowances | Any additional allowances in your structure (conveyance, medical, etc.) |
| Arrears | Back-pay from salary revisions or corrections |
| Total Earnings | Sum of all earning components |
If you had unpaid leave (LOP), your earnings are prorated. For example, if the month has 30 days and you had 2 LOP days, you receive 28/30 of your standard salary.
3. Deductions
| Component | What It Means |
|---|---|
| Employee PF | Your 12% contribution to Provident Fund (on Basic up to ₹15,000) |
| Employee ESI | 0.75% of gross salary (only if your gross is ≤ ₹21,000/month) |
| TDS (Income Tax) | Monthly income tax deducted at source, based on your projected annual income and tax declarations |
| Professional Tax | State-specific tax, typically ₹200/month (varies by state, max ₹2,500/year) |
| Total Deductions | Sum of all deductions |
4. Net Pay
Net Pay = Total Earnings - Total Deductions
This is the amount credited to your bank account.
Example Payslip
For an employee with annual CTC of ₹12,00,000:
| Monthly (₹) | |
|---|---|
| Earnings | |
| Basic Salary | 50,000 |
| HRA | 20,000 |
| Special Allowance | 16,350 |
| Total Earnings | 86,350 |
| Deductions | |
| Employee PF | 1,800 |
| TDS | 8,500 |
| Professional Tax | 200 |
| Total Deductions | 10,500 |
| Net Pay | 75,850 |
Your TDS deduction decreases if you submit investment declarations (80C, 80D, HRA exemption). Declare your investments early in the financial year to maximize monthly take-home pay. See Investment Declarations.
Employer Contributions (Shown for Reference)
Your payslip also shows employer contributions that are part of your CTC but not part of your take-home pay:
| Component | Monthly (₹) |
|---|---|
| Employer PF | 1,800 |
| Employer ESI | 0 |
| Gratuity | 2,404 |
These amounts are paid by Omnivoo on your behalf directly to the respective statutory bodies.
Common Questions
Why is my TDS different from my colleague's? TDS depends on your total income, tax regime (old vs new), and investment declarations. Two employees with the same CTC can have different TDS if their declarations differ.
Why do I see LOP deduction? If you took leave without sufficient leave balance, those days are marked as Loss of Pay and your salary is prorated accordingly.
Where can I see year-to-date totals? Your tax computation statement, available under Tax Documents, shows cumulative earnings and deductions for the financial year.
