House Rent Allowance is 50% of the basic salary if the employee lives in a metro whereas it is 40% if the employee lives in a non-metro. The formula implied here is =IF(G10=”Metro”,L10/$G$7*J10*50%,IF(G10=”Non-Metro”,L10/$G$7*J10*40%, 0)).
Insert the fixed amount of conveyance allowance as per the company policy. This cell also consists of predefined formula and calculates the actual conveyance allowance based on attendance. The conveyance amount is divided by the total days payable.
The calculations for the medical allowance are also similar to the conveyance allowance. You need to enter a monthly fixed medical allowance and it automatically calculates the amount based on the attendance of the employee.
An employer pays a fixed allowance to his employees to meet certain requirements over and above the basic salary. These allowances fall into the special allowance category.

EPF is auto-calculated. The formula implied here is =IF(U10=0,0,IF(U10*12%<1800,1800,U10*12%)).
An employee must contribute a minimum of 12% of Rs. 15000 that is Rs. 1800 hundred. If the salary is above Rs. 15000, then 12% on the actual amount will be calculated.
The EPF or provident fund is a retirement scheme for salaried employees in India. It is mandatory by law for every employer to register with EPFO if the company has more than 20 employees.
Insert advance salary amount if an employee has taken it priorly or leave it blank. The sum of all the above amounts equals the total deductions. Insert bonus as per company policy.
