Estimated liability before TDS/TCS, advance tax, self-assessment tax, foreign-tax or MAT/AMT credits, section 89 relief, interest and fees. It does not calculate your balance payable or refund.
Regime choice can depend on business income, past elections and Form 10-IEA deadlines. A lower estimate does not establish eligibility. A nil estimate does not determine whether an ITR is required.

A useful starting point.
The calculator applies the selected slabs or entity rate, eligible resident-individual rebate, marginal relief, surcharge and 4% cess. Standard deduction can be applied automatically to salary or your own employment pension.
Enter income and deductions already checked for eligibility. Family pension belongs in other income after its separate permitted deduction. Exempt income, property-sale TDS, capital gains, dividends, treaty relief, loss adjustments and MAT/AMT require separate consideration.
For property transactions, visit our NRI services and service guides. This annual income tax tool does not estimate TDS on a property sale.
