    {
      "q": "Is the salary CTC or in-hand?",
      "a": "Most Indian schools quote annual CTC. In-hand is lower than CTC once employee PF (12% of basic, capped at ₹15,000 basic/month), professional tax and — where applicable — income tax under the new regime are deducted. Plug the offered CTC into the in-hand salary calculator at /tools/in-hand-salary-calculator for a line-by-line breakdown against this job."
    },
    {
      "q": "How do I write an application email for this HOD Commerce role?",
      "a": "A ready template with subject line, three-paragraph structure and attachment checklist (with a \"HOD Commerce — Baba Gurmukh Singh Baba Uttam Singh Sen. Sec. School, Khadur Sahib\" subject-line example) is in the guide: /guides/teacher-application-letter."
    },
    {
      "q": "Can I negotiate the salary at Baba Gurmukh Singh Baba Uttam Singh Sen. Sec. School, Khadur Sahib?",
      "a": "Yes — the band shown is a starting point. Schools consider your last-drawn CTC, teaching experience, board expertise (CBSE) and any specialist skills. Come prepared with a specific number and a 1-line justification."
    },
    {
      "q": "When are increments and bonuses given?",
      "a": "Annual increments are usually announced in March/April, alongside the new academic year. Performance-linked bonuses vary by school — some pay a one-month festive bonus, others none."
    },
    {
      "q": "Which curriculum does the school follow?",
      "a": "Baba Gurmukh Singh Baba Uttam Singh Sen. Sec. School, Khadur Sahib follows the CBSE curriculum, so teaching, assessment and reporting align to that framework."
    },
    {
      "q": "Is this a fixed-term or open-ended contract?",
      "a": "The employment type is shown in the Key Facts section above. Fixed-term roles usually align to the academic year; permanent roles are open-ended after probation. The final letter will spell out renewal and exit terms."
    },
    {
      "q": "When does the school want the joining date to be?",
      "a": "Joining dates are usually negotiable around the school calendar. Mid-term joining is common for replacement vacancies; new positions often align to April or the start of the next term."
    },
    {
      "q": "Is background verification done before joining?",
      "a": "Yes — most schools run document and reference verification, and many use third-party background checks. Keep your last 2–3 employer references and original certificates ready."
