    You have to pay on gross salary if it is taxable.

      As a principle Zakat is calculated on your Total Salary i.e. Zakat on Production = [(Monthly Salary of 100,000*12)-Nisab for Yearly Production Zakat]*10%

      However, there can be difference of opinion on whether Zakat percentage (10% in your case) should be applied on amount only above Nisab threshold (as given in the equation above) or on the whole amount as soon as it crosses the Nisab threshold (i.e. Zakat on Production assuming total production to be greater than Nisab = [Monthly Salary of 100,000*12]*10%). Please see these responses of Ghamidi Sahab in this regard:
