Estimate taxable income, cess, and total annual tax under old and new regime assumptions.
What it does
Estimates taxable income, tax before cess, rebate impact, cess, and total annual tax from gross income and regime selection.
Why it matters
A fast tax estimate helps during salary negotiations, budgeting, quarterly planning, and side-by-side regime comparisons.
Definition
Income tax in India is typically calculated progressively, where different slices of taxable income are charged at different slab rates.
Assumptions
How to interpret your results
When the new regime result is lower, that usually means your deduction pool is not large enough to offset the old-regime slab benefit.
How to improve
Check eligible deductions
Old-regime outcomes depend heavily on whether your actual 80C, 80D, HRA, or other deductions are real and claimable.
Re-run before filing
Tax rules and thresholds can change, so use updated payroll or advisor data before a final filing decision.
