Sitharaman on Wednesday said currently individuals with total income of up to Rs 5 lakh do not pay any tax due to rebate under both the old and new regimes. She further said under the new personal income tax regime, the number of slabs would be reduced to five.
Under the revamped concessional tax regime, no tax would be levied for income up to Rs 3 lakh. Income between Rs 3-6 lakh would be taxed at 5 per cent; Rs 6-9 lakh at 10 per cent, Rs 9-12 lakh at 15 per cent, Rs 12-15 lakh at 20 per cent and income of Rs 15 lakh and above will be taxed at 30 per cent. With effect from April 1, these slabs will be modified as per the Budget announcement.
