For e.g. if we say our CTC is Rs 6.0 Lacs p.a., the first impression that we get is Rs 50000 is the monthly gross. But depending on the break ...

shouldn't the last line be '...the typo error in the self assessment tool' instead of '...typo error in the NARIC database' ? As the Self Assessment tool picks up university names from NARIC database, I had put it like that. Can I change it as you mentioned, please let me know. Thanks Raghavendran.G

Latha,

CTC does not matter for the Tier-1 Visa process as for most companies CTC and monthly gross varies because of Variable pay and other aspects. The rule clearly says "Gross Income" has to be considered and it is the one printed in the payslip.
