Old to New Regime

This query is : Resolved

Quick Summary

If you've filed your Income Tax Return (ITR) under the new regime for AY 2024-25, you can still choose the old regime for AY 2025-26. The old regime remains the default unless you actively opt out. Once you opt out of the old regime in the future, the new regime becomes your default for life, unless you have business income.

Once you opt out of old regime (in future), new regime will be default regime for life long or till you have any business income.
