Salaried individuals can still choose between the Old Regime (which allows Chapter VI-A deductions like 80C, 80D, and HRA) and the New Regime (lower slab rates with minimal exemptions). This tool provides a direct, penny-accurate comparison.

• Old Regime (with ₹1.5L 80C + ₹50k std ded): Taxable income ₹10,00,000. Tax = ₹1,12,500 + 4% Cess (₹4,500) = ₹1,17,000.
• Result: New Tax Regime saves ₹45,500 in tax.
