Sir,
Every year salaried persons eargerly await budget proposals. However this anxiosity is lost with the proposed DTC introduction from 2012-13. However the proposals advanced by Govt. when the Indian Economy was at its best during 2009 to be implemented in 2012-13 is far from satisfaction. Though the basic limit is exempted upto Rs.2 lakhs, there is nothing new to offer to the salaried persons upto Rs.8 lacs. Hence, I would earnestly request the FM to seriously consider extending the following benefits in order to mitigate the hardship being faced by the middle class salaried persons.
Basic exemption limit(due to high inflation and rupee depreciation Rs.2,25,000/-
Savings without segregation of NSC, PPF, LIC, Infra/bonds Rs.1,50,000/-
Income tax slabs First 2.25 to 6.00 ….10%
Second 6.00 to 10.00 …20%
Third Above10.00 …30%
Kindly consider the above atleast to mitigate the hardship
Thanks

if savings in PPf is 70,000 and other savings 30,000 and gross salary is Rs5,00,000 then what is the income tax in the current year.
taxable income = gross salary – ( savings + ppf )
i.e. taxable income = 5,00,000- ( 30,000+ 70,000)
=5,00,000 – 1,00,000
= Rs 4,00,000
