Tax queries 1109 views 11 replies

Dear Sir,

Currently I am Working with Department of Education in Delhi (State Governement) Location from April 2018. I am paying rent accomodation of 10,000 per month.  Given below is my salary Structure per Month :

Basic = 44900

HRA = 10776

DA = 3143

TA = 3852

Deductions:

NPS (National pension) = 4804

Education Cess = 80

DHS/CGHS = 650

UTGIS/CGEIS = 20

So My Gross Income is 7,50,000 lakhs per Annum ( Rs 62,500/month) and Saving under section 80C = 1,50,000 Lakhs ( 57500 of nps + 92500 of ppf). I want to know about what will be the Taxable income in my case and also plz solve below four questions:

Q1) My HRA exemption under section 10(3) using rent slips is least of three condition is around Rs 60,000 per annum, i am confused with HRA exemption, is it comes under 1.5 lakhs saving or apart of that ?

Q2) TA is Rs 3852 so full amount is taxable or only 1600/month as exempt from tax. Plz answer ?

Q3) According to me, Taxable salary =

                        Gross income - Saving(1.5 lakhs) - HRA Exemption - Standard deduction

                        =  7,50,000 - 1,50,000 - 60,000 - 40,000

                        = 5,00,000 ( is it correct or not ?)

Q4) Some peoples are saying that HRA Exemption and Standard deduction is part of Saving 1.5    Lakhs. If it is, then Taxable income will be :                            

       = Gross Income - Saving (1.5 Lakhs)

      = 7,50,000 - 1,50,000

      = 6,00,000 ( is it correct or not )

Check your form 16.

Sir,

What will be the taxable income in my case with saving and hra exemption ....plz calculate ?

Q1) HRA deduction apart from 80 deduction
Q2)TA allowed is Rs 1600 per month
Q3) Standard deduction is for FY2018-19 only. So Taxable income is 750000-(150000+60000)
Q4) Refer Q3

Note If you come under NPS and you have NPS tier-1 then you are eligible for this deduction. More over you can avail Rs 200000 as deduction.
Rs 150000 under chapter iV a and Rs 50000 of NPS u/s 80ccd1(b)

Sir,

I think TA 1600 from 3852 also will be exempt from tax and remaining 1600 * 12 = 19200 amount will be tax-free.

FY 2018-19, so Final calculation will be = 750000 - (150000+60000+19200) = 5,20,000 ( is it correct ? )

 

From Next year FY  2019-20 ; Standard deduction of 40,000 will included then

Final calculation will be = 750000 - (150000+60000+19200+40000) = 4,80,000 ( is it correct ?)

 

gross salary = 752052
less - hra. = 71660
ta =. 19200
salary income = 661192
less - 80c. 150000
80d. 8040

taxable income income=503152
503152 will be your taxable income

Rama Krishan Ji,

As per your calculation for FY2018-19, my taxable income is 503152

Next year FY 2019-20 Standard Deduction of 40,000 will come , then what will happen with my Taxable salary. ?

 

Standard deduction will come from FY 2018-19. Exact amount cannot be calculated by now because you will get incentive, increment, DA hike etc. Here they have given the formula. Use it to calculate

Assume that I would join in December 2019, I am confused with Standard Deduction Amount of 40,000. Is amount of Standard Deduction 40,000 comes under Saving section 80C of 1,50,000 lakhs or apart of 1.5 lakh saving ?

standard deduction is apart from chapter viA deductions. transport allowance and medical reimbursement deductions will not allowed for f.y. 2018-19
if you join in DEC 2019 you can claim chapter VI A deductions and HRA. But you cannot claim TA and Medical reimbursement since these two are replaced by standard deduction of Rs 40000.
