Quick Summary
Salary received in Tally can be recorded by creating separate ledgers for salary components like Basic, HRA, Bonus, and Allowances under Indirect Income or Salary Account. Deductions like PF, ESI, PT, and LWF can be created separately. Simple entry: Bank Dr, Deductions Dr, To Salary Income.

All income heads can be merged into Salary from ABC under capital account. All deduction heads can be created separately under capital account
All income heads are seperately segregated.

Incomes to credit

Deductions to debit

If you have form 16 then you don't need breakup on tally. It will become cumbersome
