Direct Tax Code !!!

It's time to rejoice for salaried ( also enterpreneurs , actually I meant taxpayers ) persons as the GOI (Government of India) has announced an exemption for every slab of income.

Here are the details: -

• Tax for income between Rs. 2 lakh - Rs. 5 lakh: 10%
• Tax for income between Rs. 5 lakh - Rs. 10 lakh: 20%
• Tax for income over Rs. 10 lakh: 30%

The limit for exemptions for salaried people is Rs. 2 lakh, while that for senior citizens is Rs. 2.5 lakh.

Corporate tax has been kept at 30%.



The revised proposal has also made it clear that tax incentives on housing loans will continue. Payment on interest on housing loans up to Rs. 1.5 lakh will continue.
