If in a financial year your total tax liability exceeds Rs 10,000 you will be required to pay Advance Tax. Do remember to include all heads of income calculating Advance Tax.

Here's how you can calculate your Advance Tax:-

1) Estimate your Freelancing Income: Add the expected income from your clients. If you have ongoing agreements which lay out payment terms, use those for estimating your income.
2) Subtract Expenses: From this income, you are allowed to reduce expenses which are directly related to the freelancing work. Rent of your workplace, internet, telephone costs, depreciation on computers, travel expenses etc. Read more here: Income and Expenses of a Freelancer
3) Add up all other Income: Add expected income from other heads like House Property, Interest Income, etc. Apply the latest Income Tax Rates to calculate your tax due. Do remember to reduce any TDS that may have been deducted from your Income.
