      If your Taxable Income if Rs 2.5 Lakhs, then you need to Pay 10% of Rs70,000(2.5L-1.8L) which is Rs 7000 + Cess.
      But if your Total Income is Rs 2.5 Lakhs and if you are able to show House Rent/Home loan, PF Deductions Or any other Insurance of Rs 70,000, there would be no Tax on your Income…

    • Financial Advisor

      You have interpreted the news wrong. Tax is there as applicable but you need not file ITR if your taxable income is below 5 Lakh rupees. Your employer will deduct tax as usual.

    • kamesh

      The tax should be deducted as per the income tax slab. Only thing is you need not file income tax returns if your annual salary comes below 5 lakhs and you dont have any amount to be claimed as refund with income tax authorities.But i would suggest you to file the returns as its very simple and doesnot have any complication which will ease you to get the loans with the bankers if you require.
