Income tax calculator for India

Posted in Finance, Income Tax, India.

Most of people like me (employed in different organizations) need to know how much tax will be deducted every month as TDS (Tax deducted as source) by their employer.

To help all of us, I have created a small but powerful income tax calculator using which one can find out how much In hand he will get, how much HRA proof he needs to provide to make HRA non-taxable, whats the total tax he will have to pay for a year. After you calculate your taxes, you can also read How to file income tax return online.

    hi How to get refund of Professional tax which is paid in excess as advance payment

    • Pankaj Batra says

      @Seema
      Usually professional tax paid is non refundable.
      You may try writing to state authorities to whom professional tax was deposited, with all proofs. Or You may ask your employer to help in this case.

    • Pankaj Batra says

      @Yunus
      You will have to pay 15% income tax on profit from share sale, if STT has been paid on transactions and shares have not been kept for a year.
      If STT has been paid on transaction and share has been kept with you for more than a year, there won’t be any income tax on this profit.

    I am working singapore last 11year and I paid tax in singapore at last 6years. I not paid any tax in india. Is it required to paid. If yes what is the details and forms. Please assist.

    • Pankaj Batra says

      @Sujith
      If you have any income in India (say from bank interest, rental income etc.) which is more than non-taxable range (before any deduction/exemption), then its mandatory to file income tax return.
      Based on type of income, you would need to file ITR 1/2/3/4.
