## Frequently asked questions

### Does Mumbai vs Pune affect take-home salary at ₹15 LPA?

Professional tax is the same across Maharashtra (₹2,500/year) whether you work in Mumbai or Pune, so the tax component of take-home is identical. The difference, if any, comes from HRA exemption: metro-city status (Mumbai) allows 50% of basic as the HRA cap vs 40% for Pune, potentially increasing HRA exemption under the old regime for Mumbai employees who pay high rent.
