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": "Is this a fixed-term or open-ended contract?", "a": "Most permanent teaching roles in Indian K-12 schools are open-ended after a 3–6 month probation. The offer letter you receive will state the exact terms, including probation, notice period and confirmation criteria." }, { "q": "Which curriculum does the school follow?", "a": "DAV Senior Secondary School Lathiani follows the CBSE curriculum, so teaching, assessment and reporting align to that framework." }, { "q": "What's the interview process like for this teaching role?", "a": "Typical schools run a screening call → a demo class (15–30 minutes for the relevant grade) → a panel interview with the Principal/HOD. Some boards also ask for a written response or a sample lesson plan." }, { "q": "Is there a probation period?", "a": "Yes — a 3 to 6 month probation is standard in K-12 schools across India. Benefits like PF and gratuity continue to accrue from day one regardless." }, { "q": "Where exactly is DAV Senior Secondary School Lathiani located?", "a": "The school is in Una, Himachal Pradesh. Check the \"About the school\" section for the campus link and the nearest public-transport reference." }, { "q": "What kind of professional development is offered?", "a": "Most schools run weekly/monthly in-house PD sessions on pedagogy and assessment. Funded external workshops (board-specific or subject-specific) are offered to teachers in good standing." }, { "q": "Will I get PF and statutory benefits?", "a": "Most registered schools enrol staff in EPF from day one and pay statutory gratuity. ESI cover applies if your gross is within the eligibility limit at joining." }, { "q": "When are increments and bonuses given?", "a": "Most schools run yearly increments tied to the academic calendar (April cycle). Bonus structure depends on the school — confirm in writing before accepting the offer." } ] }
