What is Income Tax?

Income Tax is a direct tax levied by the Government of India on the earnings of individuals, HUFs, and businesses. India follows a progressive tax system where higher income attracts higher tax rates. For FY 2024-25, taxpayers can choose between the Old Regime (with deductions like 80C, 80D, HRA) and the New Regime (lower rates, fewer deductions, ₹75,000 standard deduction).

Tax Calculation Method

Tax = Sum of (Taxable Income in each slab × Slab Rate) + 4% Cess

Under the New Regime: ₹0-3L (0%), ₹3-7L (5%), ₹7-10L (10%), ₹10-12L (15%), ₹12-15L (20%), >₹15L (30%). A standard deduction of ₹75,000 is available. Rebate u/s 87A makes tax zero if taxable income is ≤₹7L. Health & Education Cess of 4% is added on the tax amount.

Worked Example (New Regime)

  1. Annual Income = ₹12,00,000
  2. Standard Deduction = ₹75,000
  3. Taxable Income = ₹11,25,000
  4. ₹0 - ₹3,00,000 = ₹0 (0%)
  5. ₹3,00,000 - ₹7,00,000 = ₹20,000 (5%)
  6. ₹7,00,000 - ₹10,00,000 = ₹30,000 (10%)
  7. ₹10,00,000 - ₹11,25,000 = ₹18,750 (15%)
  8. Total Tax = ₹68,750
  9. Cess (4%) = ₹2,750
  10. Total Tax Payable = ₹71,500
