This time the government has made 0 tax on income up to 7 lakhs. But there is a screw stuck here, maybe even you could not understand it.

This is the math of tax

The government is continuously promoting the new tax regime. This is the reason why the government has made income up to 7 lakh tax free under this. But if your income is more than 7 lakhs, then you will have to pay tax, that too on the entire income of more than three lakhs. Under this, 5 percent income tax will have to be paid on income of 3 to 6 lakhs, 10 percent on income of 6 to 9 lakhs, 15% on 9 to 12 lakhs, 20% on 12 to 15 lakhs, 30% on more than 15 lakhs. Now some people here are eating gacha.

Standard deduction of 50000 is also included

Actually, tax rebate is given to tax payers under section 87A (87A) by the government, which is applicable to income of 3 to 7 lakhs. According to the new tax regime, you have become free from any kind of tax liability on income up to 7 lakhs. Standard deduction of 50000 is also included in this, which means you will not have to pay any tax on income up to 7.5 lakhs. But if your salary increases even by Rs 200, (Rs 2400 annually) then you will get a penalty of Rs 25000. Let's understand how-

Zero tax on earning of Rs 62,500

With an annual income of Rs 7.5 lakh, the income per month is Rs 62,500. Now let's talk if your salary increased by Rs 200 then it increased to Rs 62,700.

25,240 tax on salary of Rs.62,700

If you earn Rs 62,700 every month, then your annual income is Rs 7,52,400. Here after getting the standard deduction of 50,000, the annual income has come down to Rs 7,02,400 i.e. above 7 lakh i.e. tax will have to be paid. 15 thousand tax at the rate of 5 percent on the income of three to six lakhs. On income between 6 to 9 lakhs, you will have to pay tax of Rs 10,240 on income of Rs 1,02,400. Together, you have a tax liability of Rs 25,240. You will not get any kind of rebate in this.
