*INCOME TAX CALCULATION

WHAT IS INCOME TAX CALCULATION?

Income tax calculation helps you estimate your taxes based on your income after the union budget
is presented.

Union Budget: The Union Budget of a year, also referred to as the annual financial statement, it is a
statement of the estimated receipts and expenditure of the government for that particular year.

*How to calculate Income Tax:

Income Tax Calculation for the Salaried:

Income from salary is the sum of Basic salary+ HRA + Special Allowance + Transport Allowance+
any other allowance.

What is HRA?

Salaried Individuals, who live in rented houses, can claim the House Rent Allowance (HRA) to lower
their taxes- partially or wholly. This allowance is for expenses related to rented accommodation. If
you don’t live in a rented accommodation, this allowance is fully taxable.

What is LTA?

Leave Travel Allowance or LTA allows individuals to claim tax exemption for a trip made within India
for the taxpayer and his/her family under Section 10(5).

 Some components from your salary are exempt from tax, such as telephone bills
reimbursement, leave travel allowance.
 On top of these exemptions, a standard deduction of Rs. 40,000/- was introduced in budget
2018. This has been increased to Rs. 50,000 in budget 2019.
 In case you opt for the new tax regime, these exemptions will not be available to you.
 Let’s understand income tax calculation under the current tax slabs and new tax slabs by
way of an example
