People were also enslaved back in the day. Just cause it was that way waaay back then doesnt mean it made sense or that people should endure it now. You "i suffered, so I'm bothered by others who dont want to " folks are weird. It's like you grew older, but failed to mature in the ways that it matters.

Yeah, go look for another job. Good luck with fully remote, RTO/hybrid in 2026 (don't get me wrong, there still will be remote roles but less and less).

I’m at office/client 3-4 days per week, but I also live in a small city where I’m 20 minutes from the client or office, so it’s not a crazy imposition.

I joined Tiger Analytics with CTC of 9lpa. When I check in greythr IT statement, it shows 7.14lpa.

In the CTC payslip, it shows 75k per month as my salary. But this month I got 61k.

I understand they deduct tax, but I feel it is too much. IDK where I'm losing the money. Can someone tell if this is normal. I'm a fresher so, IDK much about it.

Also, what can I do to pay less taxes? Any help on that?
