How this works

A salary hike is just the percentage change between your old and new pay. This tool works it out in three different directions.

1

Apply a hike %

Know your current pay and the raise you've been offered? We compute New = Old × (1 + Hike ÷ 100) and the exact rupee increase.

2

Find the hike %

Have two salary figures? We measure the jump with Hike % = ((New − Old) ÷ Old) × 100 so you know your real increment.

3

Reach a target

Chasing a number? Enter your current and target salary and we return the exact hike percentage you'd need to get there.

The formulas we use

New salary after a raise

New = Old × (1 + Hike ÷ 100)

A 15% hike on ₹50,000 gives ₹50,000 × 1.15 = ₹57,500, an increase of ₹7,500.

Hike percentage from two salaries

Hike % = ((New − Old) ÷ Old) × 100

Going from ₹50,000 to ₹60,000 is ((60,000 − 50,000) ÷ 50,000) × 100 = 20%.

The percentage is always measured against the old salary. Monthly and annual figures give the same hike % — the toggle only changes the rupee amounts. Enter CTC, gross or in-hand pay depending on what your offer quotes; the math is identical. This is an estimate to help you plan and negotiate.

Frequently Asked Questions

How is a salary hike percentage calculated?
The hike percentage is the increase divided by your old salary, times 100: Hike % = ((New − Old) ÷ Old) × 100. If your salary rises from ₹50,000 to ₹60,000, the hike is ((60,000 − 50,000) ÷ 50,000) × 100 = 20%. It is always measured against the old salary, not the new one.
How do I find my new salary after a percentage hike?
Multiply your current salary by 1 plus the hike as a decimal: New = Old × (1 + Hike ÷ 100). A 15% hike on ₹80,000 gives ₹80,000 × 1.15 = ₹92,000, an increase of ₹12,000. Use the first mode of this calculator to do it instantly for a monthly or annual figure.
Should I use my monthly or annual salary?
It does not change the hike percentage — a 10% raise is 10% whether you enter monthly or annual figures. The toggle only affects the rupee amounts shown. Enter whichever number you know; the calculator shows both the monthly and annual equivalents of your new salary so you can compare either way.
Is the hike calculated on CTC, gross or in-hand salary?
It depends on the number you enter. A hike offered on CTC applies to the whole cost-to-company, while a raise on in-hand pay applies after deductions like PF and tax. The percentage math is the same, but the rupee increase differs, so enter the figure that matches what your offer or appraisal quotes.
What hike do I need to reach a target salary?
Use the third mode: enter your current salary and your target, and it returns the required hike using Required % = ((Target − Current) ÷ Current) × 100. To go from ₹60,000 to ₹75,000 you need a ((75,000 − 60,000) ÷ 60,000) × 100 = 25% hike. Handy when negotiating a new offer or appraisal.
Can this calculator show a salary cut?
Yes. If the new or target salary is lower than the current one, the hike percentage comes out negative, which represents a pay cut. The increase amount is shown with a minus sign so you can see exactly how much lower the revised figure is.
Is this salary hike calculator free and private?
Yes. Every calculation runs entirely in your browser — no salary figures or personal data are ever sent to a server or stored anywhere. The tool is completely free with no sign-up required.
