Under the new tax regime, there will be no tax on income up to Rs 3 lakh. On the other hand, 5 percent on income of Rs.3 lakh to Rs.6 lakh, 10 percent on Rs.6 to 9 lakh, 15 percent on Rs.9 lakh to Rs.12 lakh and 20 percent from Rs.12 lakh to Rs.15 lakh and above Rs.15 lakh. will be taxed at 30 per cent on his income. Also, if your income is more than Rs 15.5 lakh, then standard deduction of Rs 52,500 will also be available.
