New Tax Regime:
The Indian Union Budget 2020 introduced a new personal income tax regime for individual taxpayers. However, the option for this concessional tax regime came with a cost; it required the taxpayer to forego certain specified deductions. These include standard deduction of Rs 50,000, deduction under section 80C of Rs 1.50 lakh and interest on self-occupied property of Rs 2 lakh, deductions which are availed by most taxpayers. As a result, the concessional tax regime may not always be beneficial.
The new income tax regime provides for concessional tax rates vis-à-vis tax rates in the existing or old tax regime. Further, as most of the exemptions and deductions are not available, the documentation required is lesser which makes filing of ITR easier.
