Take-home pay
Sri Lanka take-home pay calculator for 2025/26
Turn gross monthly salary into cash take-home after employee EPF and APIT.
How is take-home salary calculated?
Cash take-home = gross salary + cash allowances − employee EPF − APIT. Employee EPF = the selected statutory base × 8%. APIT uses IRD Table 01: up to Rs 150,000 is Rs 0; then income × 6% − Rs 9,000 up to Rs 233,333; × 18% − Rs 37,000 up to Rs 275,000; × 24% − Rs 53,500 up to Rs 316,667; × 30% − Rs 72,500 up to Rs 358,333; and × 36% − Rs 94,000 above that.
What is take-home pay on Rs 250,000 a month?
Employee EPF = Rs 250,000 × 8% = Rs 20,000. APIT = Rs 250,000 × 18% − Rs 37,000 = Rs 8,000. Take-home = Rs 250,000 − Rs 20,000 − Rs 8,000 = Rs 222,000.
