India follows a progressive taxation system\u2014the more you earn, the higher the rate. For example, income up to \u20b93 lakh is taxed at 0%, but income between \u20b95 and \u20b910 lakh attracts 20% tax.<\/p>\n<p>Your <strong>taxable income<\/strong> (gross income minus deductions) determines your slab. Once you know your slab, you apply the corresponding rate to calculate your income tax liability.<\/p>\n<p>Per the <strong>Income Tax Act, 1961<\/strong>, the Central Board of Direct Taxes (CBDT) announces slabs annually. For FY 2025-26 (AY 2026-27), there are three category options for residents: standard slabs, old regime slabs (now withdrawn for most), and benefit slabs for seniors.<\/p>\n<hr \/>\n<h2>Income Tax Slabs for FY 2025-26 (Assessment Year 2026-27)<\/h2>\n<h3>Standard Resident Individuals (New Tax Regime \u2013 Default from AY 2023-24)<\/h3>\n<table>\n<thead>\n<tr>\n<th>Income Range<\/th>\n<th>Tax Rate<\/th>\n<th>Impact<\/th>\n<\/tr>\n<\/thead>\n<tbody>\n<tr>\n<td>Up to \u20b93 lakh<\/td>\n<td>Nil<\/td>\n<td>No tax<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td>\u20b93 \u2013 \u20b96 lakh<\/td>\n<td>5%<\/td>\n<td>\u20b915,000 max on slab<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td>\u20b96 \u2013 \u20b99 lakh<\/td>\n<td>10%<\/td>\n<td>\u20b930,000 max on slab<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td>\u20b99 \u2013 \u20b912 lakh<\/td>\n<td>15%<\/td>\n<td>\u20b945,000 max on slab<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td>\u20b912 \u2013 \u20b915 lakh<\/td>\n<td>20%<\/td>\n<td>\u20b960,000 max on slab<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td>\u20b915 lakh and above<\/td>\n<td>30%<\/td>\n<td>Highest bracket<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<\/tbody>\n<\/table>\n<p><strong>Plus:<\/strong> 4% health and education cess on total tax (applies to all residents), and surcharge at 10% \/ 15% \/ 25% \/ 37% for incomes above \u20b950 lakh (varies by slab).<\/p>\n<h3>Senior Citizens (Age 60\u201379)<\/h3>\n<table>\n<thead>\n<tr>\n<th>Income Range<\/th>\n<th>Tax Rate<\/th>\n<\/tr>\n<\/thead>\n<tbody>\n<tr>\n<td>Up to \u20b95 lakh<\/td>\n<td>Nil<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td>\u20b95 \u2013 \u20b910 lakh<\/td>\n<td>20%<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td>\u20b910 lakh and above<\/td>\n<td>30%<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<\/tbody>\n<\/table>\n<h3>Super Senior Citizens (Age 80 and Above)<\/h3>\n<table>\n<thead>\n<tr>\n<th>Income Range<\/th>\n<th>Tax Rate<\/th>\n<\/tr>\n<\/thead>\n<tbody>\n<tr>\n<td>Up to \u20b97.5 lakh<\/td>\n<td>Nil<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td>\u20b97.5 lakh and above<\/td>\n<td>30%<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<\/tbody>\n<\/table>\n<hr \/>\n<h2>How to Calculate Your Income Tax Liability<\/h2>\n<h3>Step 1: Calculate Gross Income<\/h3>\n<p>Sum all income sources: salary, business\/profession income, house property rental income, capital gains, and other income.<\/p>\n<h3>Step 2: Subtract Deductions<\/h3>\n<p>If you use the new regime (default), only standard deduction (\u20b975,000 for salaried employees) applies. If you opt for old regime, deductions under sections 80C (\u20b91.5 lakh max), 80D (health insurance), 80E (education loan interest), and others reduce taxable income.<\/p>\n<h3>Step 3: Identify Your Tax Bracket<\/h3>\n<p>Locate your taxable income in the slab table above.<\/p>\n<h3>Step 4: Apply Tax Rate<\/h3>\n<p>Multiply the income falling within each slab by the corresponding rate.

Non-residents are taxed differently under NRE\/NRO account rules.<\/p>\n<h3>Can I switch from new to old regime after filing ITR?<\/h3>\n<p>No, once you file under one regime, switching for the same AY requires a revised ITR within the deadline. Plan ahead before filing.<\/p>\n<h3>What if my income crosses into a higher tax bracket mid-year?<\/h3>\n<p>Your tax is calculated on total annual income for the full financial year.
