Quick Summary
This discussion clarifies the income tax payable on a gross annual salary of Rs 8 lakhs under the new tax regime following the post-Budget announcement. It details the tax calculation, resulting in Rs 35,000, but also considers the impact of the standard deduction and Section 87A exemption, which could potentially reduce the tax to nil.

The income tax for a salaried person with a gross annual salary of Rs. 8 lakhs under the new regime after the post Budget would be Rs. 35,000 ¹. Here's the calculation: - *Up to Rs. 3 lakhs*: No tax - *Rs. 3 lakhs to Rs. 7 lakhs*: 5% of Rs. 4 lakhs = Rs. 20,000 - *Rs. 7 lakhs to Rs. 8 lakhs*: 10% of Rs. 1 lakh = Rs. 10,000 - *Total income tax*: Rs. 20,000 + Rs. 10,000 + Rs. 5,000 (cess) = Rs. 35,000 Note that these calculations are based on the new tax regime announced in Budget 2024 ².
