What are the rates at which tax is to be deducted.

 

Tax rate varies depending upon monthly salary/ wage of an employee. The rates of tax are-

      Slab(Rs.)         Rate of Tax (per month)  

  1. less than 3000       Zero
  2. 3000 to 5999         Rs. 20
  3. 6000 to 8999         Rs. 80
  4. 9000 to11999        Rs. 150
  5. 12000 or more       Rs. 200 maximum
