Compare taxable income, rebate, surcharge, cess, special rate capital gains tax and the estimated final tax payable under each regime.

Frequently Asked Questions

Quick explanations for entering your information and understanding the estimate.

Which financial year does this calculator cover?

This calculator is designed for Tax Year and FY 2026 to 2027 under the Income Tax Act, 2025, as amended by the Finance Act, 2026.

Should I enter monthly or annual amounts?

Enter annual amounts for the entire financial year. For example, if your monthly basic salary is ₹1,00,000, enter ₹12,00,000.

What is the difference between the old and new tax regimes?

The new regime has lower slab rates but permits fewer deductions and exemptions. The old regime allows eligible deductions such as employee PF, health insurance premiums, HRA and specified investments. The calculator compares both automatically.

Is income up to ₹12 lakh completely tax free under the new regime?

A resident individual can receive a rebate that reduces ordinary slab tax to zero when total income does not exceed ₹12 lakh. For an eligible salaried taxpayer, the ₹75,000 standard deduction can effectively make salary up to ₹12.75 lakh tax free, assuming there is no other income or special rate income.

Does the ₹12 lakh rebate apply to capital gains?

No rebate is allowed against tax charged at special rates, such as specified capital gains. Special rate income also counts when checking whether total income exceeds the ₹12 lakh eligibility limit.

What is marginal relief above ₹12 lakh?

Marginal relief prevents a resident individual with income slightly above ₹12 lakh from paying more ordinary tax than the amount by which total income exceeds ₹12 lakh. For example, at taxable income of ₹12.10 lakh, income tax before cess is limited to approximately ₹10,000.

What standard deduction is applied?

The calculator automatically applies ₹75,000 under the new regime and ₹50,000 under the old regime, limited to eligible salary or pension income.

How are employee and employer PF contributions treated?

Your employee PF contribution can qualify within the old regime ₹1.5 lakh deduction basket but does not reduce new regime taxable income. Employer PF is generally excluded from taxable salary within the applicable employer retirement contribution rules.

How is employer NPS treated?

Eligible employer NPS is included in salary and then allowed as a deduction within the applicable percentage limit. Under the new regime, this calculator applies a limit of 14% of basic salary plus eligible DA.

How does the health insurance deduction work?

Under the old regime, premiums for you, your spouse and dependent children have a separate ₹25,000 or ₹50,000 limit from premiums paid for parents. The higher limit applies when the relevant insured group includes a senior citizen.

How is income from a rented property calculated?

The calculator deducts municipal taxes actually paid, applies the statutory 30% deduction to net annual value and then deducts eligible home loan interest. Old regime house property loss set off is limited to ₹2 lakh; the new regime does not allow that loss to offset salary or other income.

Why are capital gains entered separately from salary?

Some capital gains are taxed at special rates and do not follow the normal income tax slabs. Keeping them separate helps apply the rebate, basic exemption adjustment, loss set off and surcharge rules correctly.

How are meal coupons calculated?

Enter the coupon amount already included in salary and the number of eligible meals. The calculator limits the exemption to the lower of coupons received and the meal based maximum. Entering meals alone does not create an exemption.

Does the result include cess and surcharge?

Yes. The calculator adds the 4% health and education cess and applies applicable surcharge rates, specified income surcharge caps and statutory marginal relief.

Can I use this result to file my tax return?

This calculator provides an educational estimate. Reconcile the result with Form 16, AIS, TIS, capital gain statements, loan certificates and other tax documents before filing. Complex transactions may require professional advice.
