About the Income Tax Calculator India

Income Tax Calculator India computes your liability under either the new (default) or old regime using the slab rates announced in the Union Budget 2024-25. The new regime applies slabs of 0% up to ₹3 lakh, 5% from ₹3–7 lakh, 10% from ₹7–10 lakh, 15% from ₹10–12 lakh, 20% from ₹12–15 lakh and 30% above, with a standard deduction of ₹75,000. The old regime keeps the familiar 0/5/20/30 slabs with a ₹50,000 standard deduction plus your Chapter VI-A deductions (80C, 80D, HRA etc.). Health & education cess of 4% is applied to the final tax, surcharge kicks in above ₹50 lakh and the 87A rebate zeroes out the bill for incomes up to ₹7 lakh new regime / ₹5 lakh old regime. Use this as a fast decision helper, not as a substitute for a CA.

How to use

  1. Enter your gross annual salary and any 80C / 80D / HRA deductions.
  2. Click Compute to see liability under both regimes side-by-side.
  3. Check the slab-wise breakdown to understand exactly where the tax comes from.

Benefits & key features

  • Both regimes computed in one click — pick the cheaper one.
  • Cess and 87A rebate applied automatically.
  • Slab-wise breakdown shows where every rupee of tax originates.
  • Saves a trip to tax-consultant Excel sheets.

Pro tip

Use this as a decision helper, not for filing. For complex income (capital gains, rental, foreign), please consult a qualified tax professional.
