Formula Used
Hourly = Annual ÷ (hours/day × days/week × weeks/year)= ₹625 = ₹1,200,000 ÷ (8 × 5 × 48)Daily = Annual ÷ (days/week × weeks/year)= ₹5,000 = ₹1,200,000 ÷ (5 × 48)Weekly = Annual ÷ weeks/year= ₹25,000 = ₹1,200,000 ÷ 48Monthly = Annual ÷ 12= ₹100,000 = ₹1,200,000 ÷ 12Worked Examples

How to Read Your Results
The highlighted hourly rate is the effective gross pay per hour for the work schedule you entered. It assumes the annual salary is spread evenly across all paid hours.
A longer work schedule (more hours/day, days/week, or weeks/year) lowers the effective hourly rate because the same annual pay is divided across more hours. Use this when comparing roles with different working patterns.
Best Practices for Annual-to-Hourly Conversion
- Use the actual contracted hours/day and days/week, not theoretical maximums.
- State the paid weeks/year assumption (48 vs 52 materially changes the hourly rate).
- For CTC-per-hour, include employer-side benefits (PF, gratuity, bonus) in the annual figure.
- Compare effective hourly rates when evaluating roles with different schedules.
- For overtime calculations, confirm whether overtime is paid at 1×, 1.5×, or 2× the base hourly rate.
Frequently Asked Questions
How do I convert an annual salary to an hourly rate?+
Divide the annual salary by the total paid hours in a year (hours per day × days per week × paid weeks per year). For example, ₹12,00,000 ÷ (8 × 5 × 48) = ₹625/hour.
Why does my hourly rate change with the work schedule?+
The hourly rate depends on how many hours the annual salary is spread across. The same ₹12,00,000 spread over 1,920 hours (8/5/48) gives ₹625/hour, but spread over 2,000 hours (8/5/50) gives ₹600/hour.
Is this the same as CTC per hour?+
Only if the annual salary you entered is the full CTC (cost to company). CTC includes employer PF, gratuity, bonus, and benefits — not just gross salary. Convert the full CTC figure to get a true cost-per-hour.
