Why the gross rise is not your take-home rise

A pay rise can move part of your earnings into a higher tax band. The calculator compares both salaries separately, then shows the difference between the two estimated net figures.

These are estimates for one employment using 2026/27 rules. For tax codes, student loans, different UK regions and other deductions, use the full take-home pay calculator. Read how we calculate your pay for the rates, assumptions and limits.
