Income Tax Slab | Applicable Rate |

Up to Rs. 3 lakhs | Nil |

12 lakhs to Rs 15 lakhs | 20% |
Above Rs. 15 lakhs | 30% |

As per the old regime, the maximum limit for a non-taxable income is set to Rs. 2.5 lakhs. Moreover, one can also get a benefit under section 87A by taking a rebate of Rs 2,500. For taxpayers who have a total annual income of more than Rs. 2.5 lakhs, the rebate is expanded to Rs. 12,500 (for up to Rs 5 lakhs income) from FY 2019-20 onwards. Other than this, one may get an additional tax relief of up to Rs. 1.5 lakhs under section 80C by investing in any tax-saving instrument like LIC, PPF, Home loan principal Repayments etc.
The Union Budget 2023 introduced some changes in the slab rates for the New Regime. Now, the maximum non-taxable income is set for Rs. 3 lakhs. The taxpayer may also claim a rebate under section 87A of Rs. 25,000 only when his total income is up to Rs. 7 Lakhs for FY 2023-24 and onwards.

Income Tax is required to be paid when your income exceeds the basic exemption limit for each financial year. This limit is specified by the government every year.

Tax Deducted at Source (TDS) is a mechanism whereby the tax is deducted directly at the point of origin of income and deposited to the government. It enables speedy collection of taxes. By claiming tax deductions, you can claim this tax paid as a credit while filing your income tax return. In the case of salary income, it is your employer's responsibility to deduct the TDS and deposit it to the government.
For the purpose of calculating the monthly TDS amount, just calculate your taxes from the above calculator and divide it by 12. You will get your monthly TDS amount.
For example: From the above Income Tax calculator, the total tax has been computed at Rs. 60,000, and now, for the purpose of monthly TDS, we shall divide Rs. 60,000 by 12. Hence, the monthly TDS shall be Rs.5,000.
