Gross Salary
Gross Salary is the total compensation payable to an employee before any deductions such as PF, PT, TDS, or other statutory contributions. In Indian payroll, gross salary includes basic salary, HRA, all allowances, and bonuses, and serves as the starting point for computing net salary. It is distinct from CTC as it excludes the employer's PF and gratuity contributions.
