How to Calculate 30% Hike on CTC
To calculate a 30% hike on your current Cost to Company (CTC), simply increase your salary by 30 percent. The easiest way is to multiply your current CTC by 1.30.
This gives you your updated CTC after the hike.
You can also calculate the hike amount separately and then add it to your current salary. Both methods give the same result.
Formula
Direct Method (Fastest)
\(\text{New CTC}=\text{Current CTC}\times1.30\)Step-by-Step Method
First calculate the hike amount
\(\text{Hike Amount}=\text{Current CTC}\times0.30\)Then add it to your current salary
\(\text{New CTC}=\text{Current CTC}+\text{Hike Amount}\)Step-by-Step Calculation
Follow these simple steps.
- Step 1 Enter your current CTC
- Step 2 Multiply by 30% (or 0.30) to find hike amount
- Step 3 Add the hike amount to your current CTC
- Step 4 Divide by 12 if you want monthly salary
Example 1 – Annual Salary (₹10 Lakhs per year)
Current CTC = ₹10,00,000
Hike amount
\(10,00,000\times0.30=3,00,000\)New CTC
\(10,00,000+3,00,000=13,00,000\)Monthly salary
\(\frac{13,00,000}{12}=1,08,333\)So your updated package becomes ₹13,00,000 per year.
Example 2 – Monthly Salary (₹50,000 per month)
Current salary = ₹50,000
Hike amount
\(50,000\times0.30=15,000\)New monthly salary
\(50,000+15,000=65,000\)New annual CTC
\(65,000\times12=7,80,000\)So you will earn ₹65,000 per month.
Example 3 – Mid-Level Salary (₹6 Lakhs per year)
Current CTC = ₹6,00,000
Hike amount
\(6,00,000\times0.30=1,80,000\)New CTC
\(7,80,000\)Monthly salary
\(65,000\)Quick Reference Table for 30% Hike
| Current CTC | 30% Hike | New CTC | Monthly Salary |
|---|---|---|---|
| 5,00,000 | 1,50,000 | 6,50,000 | 54,167 |
| 6,00,000 | 1,80,000 | 7,80,000 | 65,000 |
| 8,00,000 | 2,40,000 | 10,40,000 | 86,667 |
| 10,00,000 | 3,00,000 | 13,00,000 | 1,08,333 |
| 12,00,000 | 3,60,000 | 15,60,000 | 1,30,000 |
You can quickly match your salary to estimate your new package.
Key Considerations
Keep these points in mind before assuming your final income.
- The hike usually applies to the fixed salary component
- CTC includes bonuses and benefits that are not direct cash
- Your in-hand salary will be lower after PF, tax, and deductions
- Always verify your offer letter breakdown
- A 25–35% hike is common while switching jobs

What is a 30% hike on 3.2 LPA?
To calculate a 30% hike on 3.2 LPA, multiply the salary by 1.30.
Formula
Calculation
30% of 3.2 = 0.96 LPA
New salary = 3.2 + 0.96 = 4.16 LPA

How do you calculate a 30 percent increase?
A 30 percent increase means adding 30 percent of the current amount to the original value.
Method
Step 1 Calculate 30% of the value
Step 2 Add it to the original number
Formula
Example
If salary = 5,00,000
New salary = 5,00,000 × 1.30 = 6,50,000
How to calculate a 30% raise?
A 30% raise is calculated the same way as a 30% hike.
Formula
\(\text{Raise Amount}=\text{Current Salary}\times0.30\)
\(\text{New Salary}=\text{Current Salary}+\text{Raise Amount}\)
Example
Current salary = ₹50,000 per month
Raise = ₹15,000
New salary = ₹65,000 per month
How to calculate 30% of any amount?
To find 30% of any number, multiply it by 0.30.
Formula
Examples
30% of 1,000 = 300
30% of 10,000 = 3,000
30% of 8,00,000 = 2,40,000
This method works for salary, discounts, profit, or any percentage calculation.
How much is a 30% hike in salary?
The hike amount depends on your current salary.
General formula
\(\text{Hike Amount}=\text{Salary}\times0.30\)Quick reference examples
3 LPA → 90,000 increase
5 LPA → 1.5 Lakh increase
6 LPA → 1.8 Lakh increase
10 LPA → 3 Lakh increase
So a 30% hike always adds nearly one-third of your current salary.
Final Note
A 30% hike looks attractive, but your real benefit depends on your take-home pay after deductions. Always calculate your in-hand salary to know the exact money you will receive each month.
