It is paid by Indian residents and non-residents. The accurate or exact value of the Income Tax is calculated according to various factors. Deductions and tax slabs play a major role in this, and it requires special mention.<\/p>\n<p>But the main question here is, how do you calculate income tax according to the <a href=\"https:\/\/groww.in\/p\/tax\/income-tax-slab\"><strong>income tax slab<\/strong><\/a>?<\/p>\n<h2><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Income_Tax_Calculation_According_to_Tax_Slabs\"><\/span><span style=\"color: #000080;\"><strong>Income Tax Calculation According to Tax Slabs<\/strong><\/span><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-7065\" src=\"https:\/\/www.caindelhiindia.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/03\/Income-tax-slab-.jpg\" alt=\"Income Tax Slabs\" width=\"905\" height=\"1081\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.caindelhiindia.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/03\/Income-tax-slab-.jpg 905w, https:\/\/www.caindelhiindia.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/03\/Income-tax-slab--251x300.jpg 251w, https:\/\/www.caindelhiindia.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/03\/Income-tax-slab--857x1024.jpg 857w, https:\/\/www.caindelhiindia.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/03\/Income-tax-slab--768x917.jpg 768w, https:\/\/www.caindelhiindia.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/03\/Income-tax-slab--800x956.jpg 800w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 905px) 100vw, 905px\" \/><\/p>\n<p>Income tax calculation based on the slab is pretty simple and easy to understand. All you need to do is follow the steps mentioned below:<\/p>\n<ol>\n<li>\n<h3><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Consider_All_Of_Your_Income\"><\/span><span style=\"color: #000080;\"><strong> Consider All Of Your Income<\/strong><\/span><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n<p>Now, it might seem right to only consider your income from the main source, but that is not how it exactly works. You will have to consider your income from all the sources. You might have income from different sources, such as your salary, commission, business turnover, and more. All this income is to be accounted for.<\/p>\n<ol start=\"2\">\n<li>\n<h3><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Exclude_the_Exemptions\"><\/span><span style=\"color: #000080;\"><strong> Exclude the Exemptions<\/strong><\/span><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n<p>An exemption is a form of income that can be deducted from gross income when computing income taxes. Agriculture income, conveyance allowance, transfer allowance, and so on are all excluded from income tax calculations.<\/p>\n<ol start=\"3\">\n<li>\n<h3><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Calculate_Deductions_that_Apply_to_You\"><\/span><span style=\"color: #000080;\"><strong> Calculate Deductions that Apply to You<\/strong><\/span><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n<p>Deductions refer to expenses that could be reduced from taxable income in order to reduce the income tax that you have to pay.<\/p>\n<p>For instance, let&#8217;s look at the Section 80C deductions of the Income Tax Act:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>Deductions for investments that you make in PPF, ELSS, Life insurances, NSC, Mutual Funds, ULIPS, Senior Citizen Saving Schemes, and more.<\/li>\n<li>Deductions on the interest that is received on a savings account, education, rent, and more.<\/li>\n<li>The deductions for the premiums paid in medical insurance, donations, and more.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<ol start=\"4\">\n<li>\n<h3><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Draw_Your_Net_Taxable_Income_and_Apply_the_Tax_Slab\"><\/span><span style=\"color: #000080;\"><strong> Draw Your Net Taxable Income and Apply the Tax Slab<\/strong><\/span><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n<p>Taxpayers are divided into varied groups based on their taxable income. So, for every range of income, you will find a different tax slab. The current tax slab is provided here; have a look for a better understanding. Here are the tax slabs for the Financial Year 2023-24 (Assessment Year 2024-25) under the old regime:<\/p>\n<p>Up to \u20b92,50,000: Nil<br \/>\n\u20b92,50,001 &#8211; \u20b95,00,000: 5%<br \/>\n\u20b95,00,001 &#8211; \u20b910,00,000: 20%<br \/>\n\u20b910,00,001 and above: 30%<\/p>\n<p>A surcharge is applicable for total income beyond certain limits. For example, a surcharge of 10% is applicable for total income between Rs.50,00,000 and Rs.1,00,00,000, and it increases to 15%, 25%, and 37% for higher income brackets.<\/p>\n<h3><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"The_Income_Tax_Slabs_for_FY_2023_%E2%80%93_2024\"><\/span><span style=\"color: #000080;\"><strong>The Income Tax Slabs for FY 2023 &#8211; 2024<\/strong><\/span><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n<table style=\"height: 683px;\" width=\"816\">\n<tbody>\n<tr>\n<td width=\"301\"><strong>Income Range<\/strong><\/td>\n<td width=\"301\"><strong>Tax Slab<\/strong><\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td width=\"301\">Up to Rs. 2.5 lakhs<\/td>\n<td width=\"301\">0%<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td width=\"301\">Rs. 2.5 lakhs to Rs. 3 lakhs<\/td>\n<td width=\"301\">0%<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td width=\"301\">Rs. 3 lakhs to Rs. 5 lakhs<\/td>\n<td width=\"301\">5%<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td width=\"301\">Rs. 5 lakhs to Rs. 6 lakhs<\/td>\n<td width=\"301\">5%<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td width=\"301\">Rs. 6 lakhs to Rs. 9 lakhs<\/td>\n<td width=\"301\">10%<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td width=\"301\">Rs. 9 lakhs to Rs. 10 lakhs<\/td>\n<td width=\"301\">15%<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td width=\"301\">Rs. 10 lakhs to Rs. 12 lakhs<\/td>\n<td width=\"301\">15%<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td width=\"301\">Rs. 12 lakhs to Rs. 15 lakhs<\/td>\n<td width=\"301\">20%<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td width=\"301\">More than Rs. 15 lakhs<\/td>\n<td width=\"301\">30%<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<\/tbody>\n<\/table>\n<p>Now, based on this tax slab, let&#8217;s understand how you fit in. As mentioned previously, if you fit into the range of Rs. 5 lakhs to Rs. 6 lakhs, your tax slab will be 5% of your income. This income needs to be the net income after you deduct exemptions and various other deductions.<\/p>\n<h3><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Why_Its_Important_For_You_to_Pay_Taxes\"><\/span><span style=\"color: #000080;\"><strong>Why It&#8217;s Important For You to Pay Taxes<\/strong><\/span><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n<p>The thought of whether every individual needs to pay taxes might pop into your head; well, there are reasons why no one should skip this aspect.<\/p>\n<ol>\n<li>\n<h3><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"It_is_the_Source_of_Building_Our_Nation\"><\/span><span style=\"color: #000080;\"><strong> It is the Source of Building Our Nation<\/strong><\/span><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n<p>What is the cost of running an entire country?

Income tax is the Government&#8217;s major source of income.

But the schemes required crores of rupees to be established successfully.
