A salary hike is quoted as a percentage of your current pay. A 10% raise on ₹8 lakh adds ₹80,000 a year, or about ₹6,667 a month before tax.
Choose whether you know the percentage or the new salary. The calculator shows the other, the increase, the real raise after inflation and a quick table of common hike percentages.

Raise 25%.
Subtract your old salary from the new one, divide by the old salary and multiply by 100: (10 − 8) ÷ 8 × 100 = 25%.
With inflation around 5–6%, a 5% raise keeps your buying power about the same; anything above inflation is a real raise.
Both. A hike in variable pay or employer contributions raises CTC but may not raise your monthly in-hand pay.
