Under the New Regime, salaried individuals with taxable income up to about &#8377;12.75 lakh effectively pay zero tax due to the standard deduction and Section 87A rebate.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Key takeaways:<\/strong><\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>India uses a progressive slab system, not a single flat rate &mdash; only income within each slab is taxed at that slab&#8217;s rate.<\/li>\n<li>The New Tax Regime is the default since Section 115BAC came into effect; you must actively opt for the Old Regime if you want it.<\/li>\n<li>New Regime FY 2026-27 slabs run from nil (up to &#8377;4 lakh) to 30% (above &#8377;24 lakh).<\/li>\n<li>Old Regime slabs run from nil (up to &#8377;2.5 lakh) to 30% (above &#8377;10 lakh), but allow deductions like 80C and HRA.<\/li>\n<li>A 4% Health and Education Cess applies on top of the calculated tax in both regimes.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<\/div>\n<p>Every year, millions of Indian taxpayers ask the same question while filing returns on the Income Tax Department&#8217;s e-filing portal: &#8220;which tax bracket am I actually in?&#8221; The answer depends on your total taxable income and which regime you choose. This guide walks through the exact steps to calculate your income tax bracket for FY 2026-27 (Assessment Year 2027-28).<\/p>\n<blockquote>\n<p><strong>Key takeaway:<\/strong> Your &#8220;tax bracket&#8221; in India isn&#8217;t one single rate applied to your whole income &mdash; it&#8217;s a series of slices, each taxed at a different rate, with only your topmost slice taxed at your highest applicable rate.<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n<h2>Step 1: Calculate Your Total Taxable Income<\/h2>\n<p>Add up income from all sources &mdash; salary, house property, capital gains, business\/profession, and other sources &mdash; then subtract eligible exemptions and deductions (only relevant under the Old Regime) to arrive at your taxable income.<\/p>\n<h2>Step 2: Choose Your Regime<\/h2>\n<p>Since Budget 2023, the New Tax Regime under Section 115BAC is the default option for all taxpayers. You must specifically opt for the Old Regime while filing if you want to claim deductions like Section 80C (PPF, ELSS, life insurance), HRA, or home loan interest under Section 24(b).<\/p>\n<h2>Step 3: Match Your Income to the FY 2026-27 Slab Table<\/h2>\n<h3>New Tax Regime Slabs (FY 2026-27)<\/h3>\n<table>\n<thead>\n<tr>\n<th>Taxable Income<\/th>\n<th>Tax Rate<\/th>\n<\/tr>\n<\/thead>\n<tbody>\n<tr>\n<td>Up to &#8377;4,00,000<\/td>\n<td>Nil<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td>&#8377;4,00,001 &ndash; &#8377;8,00,000<\/td>\n<td>5%<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td>&#8377;8,00,001 &ndash; &#8377;12,00,000<\/td>\n<td>10%<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td>&#8377;12,00,001 &ndash; &#8377;16,00,000<\/td>\n<td>15%<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td>&#8377;16,00,001 &ndash; &#8377;20,00,000<\/td>\n<td>20%<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td>&#8377;20,00,001 &ndash; &#8377;24,00,000<\/td>\n<td>25%<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td>Above &#8377;24,00,000<\/td>\n<td>30%<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<\/tbody>\n<\/table>\n<h3>Old Tax Regime Slabs (FY 2026-27, for individuals below 60)<\/h3>\n<table>\n<thead>\n<tr>\n<th>Taxable Income<\/th>\n<th>Tax Rate<\/th>\n<\/tr>\n<\/thead>\n<tbody>\n<tr>\n<td>Up to &#8377;2,50,000<\/td>\n<td>Nil<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td>&#8377;2,50,001 &ndash; &#8377;5,00,000<\/td>\n<td>5%<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td>&#8377;5,00,001 &ndash; &#8377;10,00,000<\/td>\n<td>20%<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td>Above &#8377;10,00,000<\/td>\n<td>30%<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<\/tbody>\n<\/table>\n<h2>Step 4: Apply the Standard Deduction and Section 87A Rebate<\/h2>\n<p>Salaried and pensioned individuals get a standard deduction of &#8377;75,000 under the New Regime. Additionally, Section 87A provides a rebate of up to &#8377;60,000 on tax liability for resident individuals, which means taxable income up to roughly &#8377;12 lakh (and effectively up to about &#8377;12.75 lakh for salaried taxpayers after the standard deduction) results in zero payable tax under the New Regime.<\/p>\n<h2>Step 5: Add the Health and Education Cess<\/h2>\n<p>After computing tax as per the slabs, add a 4% Health and Education Cess on the total tax amount (before any applicable surcharge for very high incomes) to arrive at your final tax liability.<\/p>\n<h2>Worked Example: &#8377;9,00,000 Taxable Income (New Regime)<\/h2>\n<table>\n<thead>\n<tr>\n<th>Slab<\/th>\n<th>Amount Taxed<\/th>\n<th>Rate<\/th>\n<th>Tax<\/th>\n<\/tr>\n<\/thead>\n<tbody>\n<tr>\n<td>Up to &#8377;4,00,000<\/td>\n<td>&#8377;4,00,000<\/td>\n<td>Nil<\/td>\n<td>&#8377;0<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td>&#8377;4,00,001 &ndash; &#8377;8,00,000<\/td>\n<td>&#8377;4,00,000<\/td>\n<td>5%<\/td>\n<td>&#8377;20,000<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td>&#8377;8,00,001 &ndash; &#8377;9,00,000<\/td>\n<td>&#8377;1,00,000<\/td>\n<td>10%<\/td>\n<td>&#8377;10,000<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<\/tbody>\n<\/table>\n<p>Base tax = &#8377;30,000. Since this is below the Section 87A rebate threshold, the tax payable becomes &#8377;0 for a resident individual with only this income.<\/p>\n<h2>Common Mistakes When Calculating Your Bracket<\/h2>\n<ul>\n<li>Assuming your entire income is taxed at your highest slab rate (it isn&#8217;t &mdash; only the portion within that slab is).<\/li>\n<li>Forgetting that the New Regime is now the default; you must actively elect the Old Regime.<\/li>\n<li>Missing the standard deduction or Section 87A rebate when calculating final liability.<\/li>\n<li>Not accounting for surcharge at very high income levels (above &#8377;50 lakh).<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<h2>Best Practices<\/h2>\n<ol>\n<li>Calculate your tax liability under both regimes before filing, since the better option depends on your deductions.<\/li>\n<li>Refer to the official Income Tax Department portal (incometax.gov.in) for the latest applicable rates each financial year.<\/li>\n<li>Use a dedicated tax bracket calculator to avoid manual slab-wise computation errors.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n<hr \/>\n<p><strong>Try it yourself:<\/strong> Use DigiToolkit&#8217;s free <a href=\"\/calculators\/tax-bracket-calculator\/\">Tax Bracket Calculator<\/a> to instantly see your applicable slab and tax liability.<\/p>\n<div data-dtk-related=\"1\" style=\"background:#f8f9fb;border:1px solid #e2e8f0;border-radius:6px;padding:16px 20px;margin:28px 0;\">\n<p style=\"margin:0 0 10px;\"><strong>Related tools &amp; guides on DigiToolkit<\/strong><\/p>\n<ul style=\"margin:0;padding-left:20px;\">\n<li><a href=\"https:\/\/digitoolkit.in\/calculators\/tax-bracket-calculator\/\">Try the free Tax Bracket Calculator &rarr;<\/a><\/li>\n<li><a href=\"https:\/\/digitoolkit.in\/blog\/income-tax-slab-formula-new-vs-old-regime\/\">Income Tax Slab Formula Explained: New vs Old Regime (FY 2026-27)<\/a><\/li>\n<li><a href=\"https:\/\/digitoolkit.in\/blog\/what-is-a-tax-bracket-india-guide\/\">What Is a Tax Bracket?
