5 Countries with live tax logic
14+ Free salary guides built
₹0 Cost to you

Most salary tools either give you a number with no explanation, hide the real breakdown behind a paywall or push you to sign up before showing you anything useful.

We built CTCLie differently. Every calculation runs in your browser — we never see your salary. Every insight is free. Every tax breakdown is transparent. No dark patterns, no bait and switch.

Running this means domain costs, hosting, research time and constantly updating tax slabs every financial year across 5 countries. Your coffee and love is what makes that possible.

What your support funds

🔄

Annual tax slab & monthly updates

Every budget season, we update India's new regime, UK PAYE tables, AUS/SG brackets by hand verified against official sources.

🌍

Expanding to more new countries

Canada, Germany, UAE and more are next. Each takes weeks of research to get the tax logic right. Your coffee funds that work.

📱

Mobile experience improvements

Better tap targets, faster load times, shareable salary cards — all the polish that takes real hours to ship.

🔒

Keeping it free and private

No VC money means no pressure to monetise your data. Donations keep us independent and your salary calculations off our servers.

Why people use CTCLie

"I was about to accept a 28 LPA offer thinking it was great. CTCLie showed me I'd take home less than my 22 LPA job after tax. Negotiated to 33 LPA instead."

Software Engineer, Bangalore 🇮🇳

"Used this to compare my $190K TC Google offer vs $170K base at a startup. The RSU splitter made it crystal clear which one paid more cash month to month."

Senior Engineer, San Francisco 🇺🇸

"Finally a tool that explains the difference between CTC and in-hand in plain language. My HR couldn't even explain it this clearly."

Product Manager, Hyderabad 🇮🇳

"Relocating from London to Singapore. The side-by-side comparison showed exactly how much more I'd net after CPF vs UK NI. Took the job."

Data Scientist, London → Singapore 🇬🇧🇸🇬
