⦁ Interest on housing loans is allowed till Rs. 2,00,000 every financial year. Hence, your taxable salary becomes – Rs. 7,75,000 – Rs. 2,00,000 = Rs. 5,75,000.

6. Interest on Education Loan / Purchase of Electric Vehicle / Donation Under Section 80G —

⦁ Now the overall objective is to reduce the taxable income from Rs. 5,75,000 to Rs. 5,00,000. Considering Rs. 75,000 deductions are claimed by using the above section. Then you need to pay zero taxes. Confused? Happy? How How? Let us see –

⦁ Now the Taxable salary is Rs. 5,00,000. The tax on income up to Rs. 2,50,000 is exempt from tax. Thus the tax payable would be Rs. 12,500 (5% slab from Rs. 2,50,000 to Rs. 5,00,000. Hence 5% of Rs. 2,50,000 is Rs. 12,500).

7. Rebate under section 87A –

⦁ If your income is Rs. 5,00,000 or lesser, you can claim a rebate under section 87A for a maximum of Rs. 12,500. Hurrah the tax payable is Rs. 12,500 (tax calculated above) – Rs. 12,500 (rebate u/s 87A) = 0 (Zero).
