Understanding the income tax slabs and rates for the financial year 2024-25 is crucial for taxpayers in India to plan their finances effectively. Tax slab rates differ under the old and new tax regimes. If you have opted for the old tax regime, you may be able to claim some exemptions under the relevant sections, such as Section 80C for life insurance plan premiums. However, you can expect the rates to be slightly higher as compared to the rates for the new tax regime.
Tax Slabs**
Income tax slabs are segregated mainly based on the taxpayer’s income level. Their age and some other factors are also taken into consideration.
