Example of Income Tax Calculation

The income tax calculator 2023 will be used to calculate the total tax liability in both the old and new tax regimes. Mr. X works in Delhi and has a basic monthly salary of ₹ 1.2 lakhs, an HRA of ₹ 60,000 per month, other allowances of ₹ 30,000 per month, and a leave travel allowance (LTA) of ₹ 40,000 per year.

His yearly income from long term capital gains is ₹ 50,000 and interest is ₹ 75,000. He has invested in Section 80C tax-saving options, an additional ₹ 50,000 in NPS, and a ₹ 25,000 medical insurance premium. He also claimed a ₹ 5,000 tax deduction under Section 80TTA for the interest on her savings account.

Income Tax Amount5,09,0005,18,000
Health and Education Cess20,36020,720
Total Tax Liability5,29,3605,38,720

So, as per the net pay calculator, the total tax liability that Mr. X has to incur is lower in the old tax regime as compared to the new tax regime. Therefore, the net salary calculator is very helpful for salaried individuals to calculate their annual tax liability under both regimes and decide which regime is best for them.

However, there is no sure shot rule to decide which one is better, but there are some insights on choosing the best one. The new tax regime benefits those with taxable incomes less than 15 lakhs, while the old tax regime benefits those with taxable incomes greater than 15 lakhs. The old tax regime is more helpful for an individual who has a tax-saving investment plan ready and actively chooses to invest in it than for an individual who doesn't have a strong investment plan.

A taxpayer may also change their tax regime every year based on their preferences and benefits. However, the non-salaried individual cannot make that switch frequently, and once they choose the new tax regime, they have to continuously do so.


Conclusion

The taxable income calculator provides approximate taxable income and annual tax liability.  It is a quick and convenient tool to use that provides access to history and also helps you manage your expenses and investments in advance. Also, the calculation of income tax has become very easy without the need for prior knowledge, and the taxpayers are advised to use the income tax calculator for a comparative analysis of both regimes and then choose the one that is most beneficial for them.
