Quick Summary
This discussion clarifies how agricultural income is treated for individuals with a salaried income. While agricultural income up to certain limits is exempt from tax, it's still included in total income for tax calculation purposes. The process involves calculating tax on total income plus agricultural income, then subtracting tax on the basic exemption limit plus agricultural income to determine the final tax payable, including cess.

Agricultural income is exempt however for taxation purpose it'll be included and tax has to be paid after claiming rebate. in your case
the available rebate would be as per below calculation
1. tax on (your total income + net agricultural income) = 27500
2. tax on (basic exemption limit + net agricultural income) = 6250

the tax to be paid is 27500 - 6250 = 21250
Health & Education cess will also be added @ 4% on Rs 21250
How your Taxable Income become 6,35,000/-.?
Salary.................4,50,000
+ Agriculture.......1,25,000
Total,...................5,75,000

is there any other income also..?
