• Income Tax Calculation

Up to ₹ 2.5 lakh   -   Nil
5% on ₹ 2.5 lakh (₹ 5 lakh – ₹ 2.5 lakh)  -  ₹ 12,500
10% on ₹ 4.85 lakhs (₹ 9.85 lakh – ₹ 5 lakh)  -  ₹ 61,000
20% on ₹ 5 lakhs (₹ 10 lakh – ₹ 5 lakh)  -  ₹ 1,00,000
30% on Above ₹ 10,00,000  -  ₹ 2,62,500 assuming net income of ₹ 15 lakh

Income Tax Example

Calculating the income tax is actually very easy. The formula is:

Basic salary

• HRA
• Special Allowance
• Transport Allowance
• any other allowance

---

Gross income from salary (-) Deductions

Net income (Tax calculated according to the income tax slab)

Example

If you has a salary of Rs. 25,000 per month with DA of Rs. 4500 per month, entertainment allowance of Rs. 2250 per month and pays Rs. 3500 towards professional tax, then his taxable income would be calculated as follows:

Name		Amount
Basic Salary	25000 * 12	= 3,00,000
DA	4500 * 12	= 54,000
EA	2250 * 12	= 27,000
Gross Salary		= 3,81,000
Professional Tax		3500
Net income		= 3,77,500

As his taxable income is Rs. 3,77,500, he falls in the slab of 2.5 lakhs – 5 lakhs of income tax. Thus he has to pay 10% of his net income as income tax. Income tax on above net income = 10% of 3,77,500 = 37,750
