What is Income Tax?

Every citizen of the country who is of a certain age and earns income exceeding a specific limit is obliged to pay a particular portion of their income as Tax to the government. Filing your Tax returns is an annual activity.


According to the laws governing tax filing in the country, if the person earns more than the basic exception limit, then the tax imposed on them is based on the tax slab they fall into. Everyone must file taxes. If they fail to file their ITR (Income Tax Return) on time, then they are charged a penalty fee. This could create a hindrance for the person seeking a loan or applying for a VISA.


There are two ways in which a person can file their taxes. First, if the person is a salaried employee, then the TDS (Tax Deducted at Source) is already deducted from the employer’s end before crediting it to the employee's account.


The second way, the person to file their income tax returns themselves, including all the windfall gains or capital gains, through the online ITR portal of the government. Generally, people take assistance from professionals like CA to help them with their Tax filings.


Tax slabs in India


According to the new tax regime announced in the Union budget of 2023, the basic exemption limit has been hiked from earlier, from 2.5 lakh to 3 lakhs. The income tax slabs have also been reduced to five from six FY2023-24. The new tax regime is the default tax rate for 2023-24 fillings. However, the taxpayers do have a choice to do their ITR fillings under the old Tax regime.


Individuals planning to opt for the old tax regime in FY 2023-24 will be specifically required to opt for it. The government has reduced the surcharge of the highest rate from 37% to 25% in the new tax regime.


The tax slabs under the new tax regime are given below in the following table


0-3 lakhs0%
3-6 lakhs5%
6-9 lakhs10%
9-12 lakhs15%
12-15 lakh20%
Above 15 lakhs30%

The above-given tax slabs are age-neutral. Unlike the old tax regime where the taxes were different for different age groups. The new tax regime applies to every individual. Shalini Jain, Tax Partner, EY India, says,' In line with the expectations of making new tax regime more attractive for individuals, the Finance Minister has announced new income slabs bringing down the overall tax outgo for the middle-income-earner group in FY 2023-24.'


So, for the people confused with the old and new tax regime here's a brief. The new tax regime was announced in the union budget of 2020 and became effective in FY2020-21 till now. Till FY2022-23 the old regime was the default option. Hence, a salaried individual gets the option to opt for the old tax regime and continue to avail of common tax deductions and tax exemptions. Else, he/she can opt for the new concessional income tax regime, without any common tax deductions and tax exemptions. Under the new tax regime, the individual will forego 70 deductions and tax exemptions, which include HRA tax exemption, LTA tax exemption, deduction up to Rs 1.5 lakh under Section 80C and so on.
