Frequently Asked Questions

Yes. Under the Payment of Wages Act and state-specific Shops & Establishments Acts, employers must provide wage slips to all employees. Salary slips are required for loan applications, visa processing, income tax filing, and background verification.
LOP deduction occurs when an employee is absent beyond approved leaves. LOP per day = Gross Salary ÷ Working Days × LOP Days. This reduces both gross salary and all percentage-based deductions proportionally.
PF is mandatory for establishments with 20 or more employees. Employees earning basic + DA up to ₹15,000 must be enrolled. Employees earning above ₹15,000 can voluntarily contribute. Both employee and employer contribute 12% of basic + DA.
ESI applies to employees whose gross salary is ₹21,000 or less per month (₹25,000 for persons with disability). Employee contributes 0.75% of gross; employer contributes 3.25%. ESI provides medical, maternity, disablement, and dependant benefits.

Gross Salary is the total of all earnings before any deductions (Basic + HRA + DA + Allowances). Net Salary (take-home pay) is Gross Salary minus all statutory and voluntary deductions (PF + ESI + Professional Tax + TDS + LOP). Example: Gross ₹50,000 → PF ₹3,600 + ESI ₹375 + PT ₹200 = Net ₹45,825.
Yes. For contract employees or freelancers, simply turn off PF and ESI deductions (they are optional in this tool). You can generate a professional payment slip showing only basic pay and applicable deductions like TDS. Note: TDS on professional fees is 10% under Section 194J — different from salaried TDS under Section 192.
Yes. Upload your company logo (PNG/JPG) and it will appear on the generated salary slip. You can also enter your company name, address, CIN/GSTIN, and bank account details for the employee. The salary slip is formatted in A4, print-ready format suitable for official HR records.
Professional Tax (PT) is a state-level tax on employment income. States that charge PT include: Maharashtra (up to ₹2,500/year), Karnataka (up to ₹2,400/year), West Bengal (up to ₹2,500/year), Andhra Pradesh, Telangana, Tamil Nadu, Gujarat, Madhya Pradesh, and Odisha. States like Delhi, Rajasthan, Haryana, and UP do NOT charge professional tax. This salary slip generator includes Maharashtra slabs by default.
Digitally generated salary slips are legally valid in India and accepted by banks, visa authorities, and income tax departments even without a wet signature. However, adding "Authorised Signatory" text or a digital signature increases credibility. Most banks and embassies accept printed salary slips from company letterhead without a physical stamp for the last 3–6 months.
