    As soon as the month of March dawn upon us (end of financial year), everyone runs helter-skelter collecting proofs of investment, submitting bills & claiming reimbursement for transport, & majorly making tax declarations. However, the majority of people are completely oblivious about the amount of investment they need to declare in order to qualify for income tax benefits*. This implies that they fail to make timely investments during the year. Hence, when the accountant declares that a major chunk of your salary will be deducted because of taxation; people are left confused and dissatisfied.

    The first step lies in figuring out the tax slab which is applicable to one's income. This will assist in clearing the confusion about the exact amount of income tax that can be saved per year. According to the Union Budget 2023-24, there are a few changes to keep in mind when calculating your taxes.

    Below is the tax slabs division for general income category:

    Tax slabRates
    Up to Rs. 3,00,000NIL
    Rs. 300,000 to Rs. 6,00,0005% on income which exceeds Rs 3,00,000
    Rs. 6,00,000 to Rs. 900,00010%
    Rs. 9,00,000 to Rs. 12,00,00015%
    Rs. 12,00,000 to Rs. 1500,00020%

    Saving Tax By Investing

    There are different methods to cut down the taxable component of one's income so that one does not have to pay lot of taxes at the end of the financial year. Birla Sun Life Insurance (ABSLI) has highly effective tax saving plans that affords you with tax exemption under Sec 80C of the Income Tax Act, 1961. The tax benefit* can be enjoyed if your premiums paid are restricted up to 10% of the real sum assured and up to Rs 1, 50,000 in a financial year.

    However, one should not look at life insurance as an investment or a tax saving option.
