Quick Summary
This discussion clarifies how agricultural income is treated when filing ITR 2. While agricultural income is generally exempt, it can be included for tax rate purposes if your net agricultural income exceeds £5,000 and your other income surpasses £2,50,000. The provided example shows that even with agricultural income, a tax liability can arise due to the combined income affecting the tax slab rates.

Hi 

Agricultural income is exempt from Income Tax under section 10(1) of the Income Tax Act, 1961. However, its included, for rate purposes, in computing the Income Tax Liability if following two conditions are cumulatively satisfied:

1. Net Agricultural income exceeds INR 5,000/- for P.Y. 2019-20, and

2. Total income, excluding net Agricultural income, exceeds INR 2,50,000/-.

Tax calculation will be 

Tax on total Income including agricultural income =641641

Upto 250000---Nil

250000-500000----------12500

above----500000-------------28328

Total Tax ----------------40828

Tax on agricultural income including basic exemption limit

Total Agricultural Income -----296411

Add basic exemption limit------250000

Tax on above 

upto 250000------NIL

250000-500000---------12500

above 500000-----------9282

total tax ====21782

tax payable ===40828-21782=19046

less  Rebate U/S 87A=======12500

Balance Tax payable ========6546

Add edu cess===========263

Total Tax payable ========6809

 

 

Agricultural income is not totally exempt (i.e 100%), when you have a any other income with agriculture income, than agriculture income also get merged with other income to compute tax as per prescribed method.

So, it's not showing wrong, it's right..you have a liability of RS.7895

If you provide, amount of Deduction you claim
or your gross total income than I can be able to explain you better....
