Why would you take this? Serious question, I don’t think CBAP holds a lot of value, if any. This is coming from someone who once seriously considered pursuing it

I'm regretting my decision to sign up for it. It holds no value and is very difficult.

because I took the boot camp and now the firm wants me to give the examination 🙄

What practice are you in? I’m honestly surprised. Either way, best of luck then! Sorry don’t have any tips to share since I didn’t pursue

Business operations. No worries E1. Thank you!

As I'm moving to a new role in a small company, I have a doubt about my salary structure like the Basic salary part is only 20,000 while my take home is 62k after all deductions.

I'm concerned because the leave encashment & other things totally depends on the basic salary.

Are there not any rules for the Basic salary to be at a certain % of CTC or it depends totally on the company?

Also PF deductions they are offering only 1800 p.m but considering 20000 basic it should be 12% of 20000 right?
