Total tax paid
₨ 16,200
Did you know your employer also pays tax on your salary? It costs the employer ₨ 1,250 to pay you ₨ 204,490. In other words, every time you spend ₨ 10 of your hard-earned money, ₨ 0.79 goes to the government.
Real tax rate
7.9%
So, with you and the employer both paying tax, what used to be a 7.3% tax rate now rises to 7.9%, meaning your real tax rate is actually 0.6% higher than what it seemed at first.
