Frequently asked questions

Which regime should I choose?

It depends on your deductions. If you claim a lot (80C, 80D, HRA, home-loan interest), the old regime can win. With few deductions, the new regime’s lower rates usually work out cheaper. Switch the toggle to compare both.

What is the Section 87A rebate?

A rebate that makes income up to a threshold effectively tax-free — ₹5 lakh taxable under the old regime, and ₹7 lakh (FY 2024-25) or ₹12 lakh (FY 2025-26) under the new regime. It’s applied automatically here.

Is the standard deduction included?

Yes, for salaried users — ₹50,000 under the old regime and ₹75,000 under the new regime. Pick ‘Other’ employment to exclude it.

How do I calculate income tax for FY 2025-26 in India?

Use this income tax calculator: pick FY 2025-26, choose the new or old regime and your employment type, then enter your gross annual income. It instantly shows your taxable income, slab-wise tax, 87A rebate, surcharge, 4% cess and total tax payable.

How much income is tax-free under the new regime?

Under the new tax regime, income up to ₹7 lakh (FY 2024-25) or ₹12 lakh (FY 2025-26) is effectively tax-free thanks to the Section 87A rebate, and salaried users also get a ₹75,000 standard deduction. This calculator applies both automatically.
