Worked example

A quick walkthrough

Inputs

₹15,00,000 annual income, New Regime, salaried (standard deduction ₹75,000).

Steps

  • Taxable income = 15,00,000 − 75,000 = ₹14,25,000
  • 0–4L: nil · 4–8L: 5% × 4L = ₹20,000 · 8–12L: 10% × 4L = ₹40,000 · 12–14.25L: 15% × 2.25L = ₹33,750
  • Slab tax = ₹93,750 · rebate 87A = 0 (income > ₹12L) · cess = ₹3,750

Result

Total tax ≈ ₹97,500 · take-home ≈ ₹14,02,500 · effective rate 6.5%
