How the tax on 14 LPA is calculated

Gross salary of ₹13,05,864 minus the ₹75,000 standard deduction leaves taxable income of ₹12,30,864. The new regime slabs apply to that amount:

  1. ₹4,00,001 – ₹8,00,000 at 5%: ₹20,000
  2. ₹8,00,001 – ₹12,00,000 at 10%: ₹40,000
  3. ₹12,00,001 – ₹12,30,864 at 15%: ₹4,630
  4. Marginal relief under Section 87A caps tax at the income above ₹12,00,000: −₹33,766
  5. 4% health and education cess: ₹1,235
  6. Total tax: ₹32,099

New or old regime at 14 LPA

With only PF and the standard deduction, the old regime would cost you ₹1,75,083 a year in tax, which is ₹1,42,985 more than the new regime. For the old regime to break even, you would need about ₹5,94,300 of extra deductions beyond PF, from 80C, 80D, HRA, home loan interest and NPS. That is more than most salaried people claim, so the new regime is the safer choice.

Your in-hand pay under the old regime with no extra deductions would be ₹88,423 a month, against ₹1,00,339 under the new regime.

Common questions

How is in-hand salary calculated?

Start with CTC and remove the parts you never receive as pay: employer PF and gratuity. That gives gross salary. From gross, subtract your own PF contribution, professional tax and income tax. Divide what is left by 12.

Is ₹12 lakh salary tax-free?

Under the new regime, yes for salaried people. The ₹75,000 standard deduction brings ₹12.75 lakh of salary down to ₹12 lakh of taxable income, and the Section 87A rebate cancels tax up to that level.

Which regime should I choose?

The old regime only wins when your deductions are large: full 80C, health insurance, HRA on high rent, and home loan interest together. If you claim little beyond PF, the new regime almost always gives more take-home pay.

Why does my payslip show a different number?

Employers deduct tax (TDS) based on the regime you declare and adjust it through the year. Bonuses, variable pay, meal cards and NPS contributions also change the monthly figure.

This is an estimate for resident salaried individuals below 60 years. It includes the 4% health and education cess, surcharge with marginal relief, and the Section 87A rebate. It does not cover variable pay, perquisites or capital gains. Check your final tax with a qualified advisor.
