Prior to looking at Income tax calculator let’s look at Income tax slabs for FY 2019-20 and recent changes made in Income Tax during budget 2019 by finance minister.
Income Tax Slabs for FY 2019-20 (AY 2020-21)
Budget 2019 was announced by the finance minister Mr.Piyush Goyal on 1st Feb,2019. One of the interesting points in budget 2019 was instead of changing tax slab, finance minster has given Rebate under section 87A. Rebate means payback in simple terms. Announcement of 5 Lakh tax free income in budget 2019 has created confusion in many people that Income tax slab is changed. However, please understand that there is only rebate, NO CHANGE in Tax Slab.
If your income is above 5 Lakh, you can not claim rebate under section 87A and you have to pay income tax above 2.5 Lakh income. Let’s understand this by example.
| Particulars | Situation I | Situation II |
| Income | 5,00,000 | 5,00,100 |
| Computation of Tax | ||
| 0-2,50,000@0% | 0 | 0 |
| 2,50,000-5,00,000 @5% | 12500 | 12500 |
| 5,00,001-500100 @20% | 0 | 20 |
| Rebate u/s 87A | 12500 | 0 |
| Net Tax | 0 | 12520 |
| Add: Cess @4% | 0 | 501 |
| Net Tax Liability | 0 | 13021 |
From above example you must be clear that if your income is less than or equal to 5 Lakh you will get rebate u/s 87A and if your income is slightly above 5 Lakh you need to pay tax.
After understanding rebate benefits let’s look at other benefits announced in budget 2019.
- For salaried person, standard deduction is increased from Rs.40000 to Rs.50000.
- TDS threshold on interest earned on bank fixed deposit and post office is raised from Rs.10000 to Rs.40000.
