Hi

Is 50 percent basic salary benefial?

You get high hra, epf etc.

But is there any downside when some one gets huge salaries?

My observation
  • hra gets to high where you wouldn't get much tax exemption.
  • Epf gets high and taxed.

Please let me know your thoughts thanks.

Absolute values do matter as there is a limit on HRA (absolute rent pm as threshold) , EPF(15K per month) beyond certain value.

Your take home salary will be less in general for high Basics.

what's this epf 15k limit, do you mean tax exemption?
