Agriculture income is exempt but for computation you have to 1st add agriculture income than deducted the agriculture income taking basic exemption limit. For Eg - Individual Assessee Agriculture Income 5L Other Income 5L Than in computation 1st calculate tax on 10L i.e 2.5L Basis exemption limit Next 2.5 L @ 5% = 12500 Next 5L @ 20% = 100000 Total Tax = 112500
Relief for Agriculture income 2.5L + 5L = 7.5L i2.5L Basis exemption limit Next 2.5 L @ 5% = 12500 Next 2.5L @ 20% = 50000 Total Tax = 62500
