Steps

  1. Walk the Old vs new tax regime checklist.
  2. Open Income Tax Calculator for the correct FY.
  3. Run new regime with little/no chapter-VIA deductions.
  4. Run old regime with your realistic deduction stack.
  5. Take the lower estimate to your CA / payroll — do not treat the tool as a filed computation.

Frequently Asked Questions

Can I switch regimes every year?

Salaried employees generally can choose each year; business income has tighter rules. Confirm current law with a CA.
