Tax on Income of ₹12 Lakhs: 2025 Budget Highlights

The 2025 Union Budget has brought some key changes that directly impact individuals earning ₹12 lakhs annually. Here are the highlights you need to know:

  • No Tax up to ₹12 Lakhs: A significant announcement is that no income tax will be levied on income up to ₹12 lakhs. This provides substantial relief to those in this income bracket. 

  • Income Tax Slab Changes: The income tax slabs have been revised. While the full details are forthcoming, these changes are likely to impact how the portion of your income above ₹12 lakhs is taxed. It's essential to review the new slab structure once released to understand your tax liability.

  • New Income Tax Bill: A new Income Tax Bill is on the horizon, promising further simplification and efficiency in the tax system. This could bring additional changes that will affect your overall tax calculation.

  • TDS/TCS Rationalization: Rationalization of TDS (Tax Deducted at Source) and TCS (Tax Collected at Source) aims to simplify compliance. This could make it easier to manage your tax obligations.

Key Considerations for ₹12 Lakh Income Earners:

  • New vs. Old Regime: Carefully evaluate whether the new tax regime or the old regime (with deductions) is more beneficial for you. While there's no tax up to ₹12 lakhs, the tax on the portion above that amount, combined with available deductions in the old regime, needs to be compared.

  • Review the New Slabs: Once the full details of the revised income tax slabs are released, calculate your tax liability under both the new and old regimes to make an informed decision.

  • Consult a Tax Advisor: For personalized advice tailored to your specific financial situation, it's always recommended to consult with a qualified tax advisor. They can help you optimize your tax planning and make the best choice for your income level.
