A user is encountering incorrect tax calculations on the official e-Filing website's Advanced Calculator for the Financial Year 2024-25 (Assessment Year 2025-26). They are seeking expert advice on how to accurately calculate their tax liability, including Short-Term Capital Gains (STCG), Long-Term Capital Gains (LTCG) from various mutual funds, interest income, and deductions under the old tax regime for a senior citizen.
17 January 2025
The Advanced Calculator at Income Tax website (https://eportal.incometax.gov.in/iec/foservices/#/TaxCalc/calculator) appears producing wrong calculation pertaining to income details for FY 2024-25 (AY 2025-26).
