What is Income Tax Calculator?

What is Income Tax?

Income tax is a direct tax that a government levies on the income of its citizens. In India, it is calculated based on different income slabs. For salaried individuals, it is often deducted at source (TDS) by the employer. The Indian government offers two tax regimes for individuals: the traditional Old Regime, which allows for various deductions and exemptions, and the New Regime, which offers lower tax rates but forgoes most deductions.
