New Tax Regime vs Old Tax Regime which should I choose?
You will have to calculate for your case and check like in these examples. Moving to the new regime may provide 5% relief in some case for those earning between 6.5L to 15L or no relief at all. Suppose the total deduction 80C 1.5L + 0.5L (NPS) + 0.25L (80D) = 2.25L (HRA and others not included for simplicity)
Example 1
Salary = 11L (before deductions).
New Tax Regime: Slab = 20%
Old Tax regime. Salary = 11L – 2.25L = 8.75L. Slab = 20%. So there is no change in this case!
Example 2
Salary = 8 L (before deductions).
New Tax Regime: Slab = 15%
Old Tax regime. Salary = 8L – 2.25L = 5.75L. Slab = 20%.
So there is a 5% relief if you move to the new tax regime.
The article will be updated with more details as and when available.
