How this Overtime Calculator works

Basic OT pay = hourly OT rate × OT hours. Under Factories Act and state rules, overtime may require double wages or prescribed multipliers on ordinary rate — this tool does not auto-apply multipliers; enter an all-in hourly OT rate if your policy blends them.

How to use

  1. Confirm the hourly OT rate from HR (or derive from daily wage ÷ hours).
  2. Enter approved overtime hours for the period.
  3. Multiply to see gross OT payout before statutory deductions.
  4. Post OT earnings through payroll with attendance approval trails.
