Terms of Use

These Terms of Use ("Terms") govern your access to and use of PayCalc Pro, a free salary calculator website operated at paycalcpro.online ("the Site", "we", "us", "our"). By accessing or using the Site, you agree to be bound by these Terms. If you do not agree to these Terms, please do not use the Site.

1. Nature of the Service

PayCalc Pro provides free, browser-based salary calculators for Indian salaried employees. Our calculators cover CTC to in-hand salary conversion, income tax estimation, EPF/PF corpus projection, HRA exemption calculation, gratuity calculation, and notice period buyout cost estimation.

All calculators are provided for informational and educational purposes only. Results generated by our calculators are estimates based on standard assumptions, publicly available tax rules, and commonly used salary structures. They are not a substitute for professional financial, legal, or tax advice tailored to your specific circumstances.

You use the Site and its calculators entirely at your own risk. PayCalc Pro does not verify, endorse, or guarantee the accuracy of results for your specific employer's salary structure, state-level taxes, or individual deductions.

2. Accuracy and Limitations

We make every reasonable effort to keep our calculators accurate and updated with the latest tax rules, EPF interest rates, and salary structure norms. However, we make no warranty, express or implied, about the accuracy, completeness, reliability, or fitness for a particular purpose of any calculation result or content on the Site.

Key limitations you should be aware of:

• • Tax laws change with every Union Budget — there may be a delay between legislative changes and our updates.
• • Our calculators assume standard salary structures (50% basic, industry-standard HRA). Your company may use a different structure.
• • State-specific professional tax rates, additional surcharges, or company-specific benefits are not fully accounted for.
• • Results are based on current-year rules and may not reflect retrospective tax amendments.

Always verify critical financial decisions with a qualified Chartered Accountant or your company's HR/finance department.

You may use PayCalc Pro for personal, non-commercial salary calculation and educational purposes. You agree not to:
