Salaried employee, new to tax and need help declaring tax

Tax queries 1256 views 6 replies

My take home for this month was 20000. "Deducted Rs 497 for income tax".

I have own accomdation hence not declaring HRA. So how can I go for saving 497.

I currently have LIC, paying 24000 per annum ( quarterly around 6000). Is this come under 80C.?

What is the difference b/w 80C and 80 ?

I know there is 100000 exemption for 80C. If I declare LIC under 80C, can I save Rs 497 which is been currently deducted.

To save tax, should I show under one investment ( or ) is it mandatory to show under multiple investment

My complete salary structure...

Monthly Basic Salary      | 10,011.89              
House Rent Allowance  | 5,005.94                
Conveyance Allowance  | 800.00                      
Flat Allowance                 | 6,208.33

Deductions

----------------
Ee PF contribution     | 1,201.00          
Prof Tax - split period | 200.00
Income Tax                  | 497.00

Take home ( 20 and change )

Thanks in Advance

Gross amount of your Salary is  Rs. 254713.92 per year after deduction u/s 10 Rs. 9600.00 from your CTC (i.e. conveyance allowance Rs. 800.00 p.m.)   & U/s  16(ii) is avaliable for P.Tax which is  Rs. 2400.00 per year . Total deduction U/s  80C is avaliable  Rs. 38,412.00 (i.e. total of Rs. 24000.00 LIC+ EPF Contribution amount Rs.14412.00)  So, Your Taxable Income in respect of F.Y.2012-2013 is Rs. 213901.92 . Your Tax liabllity is 10% of (213901.92-200000.00) i.e. Rs. 1390.19 per year. So, Your Employer  manthly deduct 115.84 from your Salary . If u declar LIC amount to your employer.So, It is advisiable that you make some investment , as max. amount of 80C, 80CCC & 80CCD is Rs. 1 lac   get mediclaim policy etc. aggregrate of which is or  excess of Rs. 13901.19 & eligiable for exemption made  Chapter VI-A

In case if I declare HRA, how will it work...?

you are not eligible HRA deduction u/s 10(13A) if you are reside your own accommodation and not pay any rent to anybody.

Hi Dibyendu, Assume, I pay House Rent of 1500 per month. I stay along with friends. The total rent is 6000 per month. How could I go about decalaration. How much more can I save from tax.

My ultimate target is make the tax deduction to "NIL" from Rs 497 

Thanks

Deduction U/s 10(13A) of Income Tax Act is lower of the menimum sum

1. Actual HRA Receive =Rs.5005.94

2. Rent paid over 10% of Salary = Rs..18000.00 -10% of Rs. 120142.68=Rs. 12014.26=Rs. 5985.74

3. 50% of Salary=40% of Rs. 120142.88=Rs. 60071.34 (assume u stey in metro city, otherwise 40%)

So, At least Rs. 5005.94 allowed as HRA deduction

But u must assure that you get rent receipt Rs. 1500.00 per manth from your land lord on your name.

Employeer deduct Rs.74.14 per manth  (i.e. Rs. 889.69 per year) if  HRA deduction made from your salary.
