Question 2.
Mr. Kartarsingh (age 48 years) works in a private company. His monthly income after deduction of allowances is ₹ 42,000 and every month he contributes ₹ 3000 to GPF. He has also bought ₹ 15,000 worth of NSC (National Savings Certificate) and donated ₹ 12,000 to the PM’s Relief Fund. Compute his income tax.
Solution:
Mr. Kartarsingh’s monthly income = ₹ 42,000
Mr. Kartarsingh’s yearly income = 42,000 x 12 = ₹ 5,04,000
Mr. Kartarsingh’s investment
= GPF + NSC
= (3000 x 12)+ 15,000
= 36,000 + 15,000
= ₹ 51,000
Donation to PM’s relief fund = ₹ 12, 000
∴ Taxable income
= yearly income – (investment + donation)
= 5,04,000 – (51,000 + 12,000)
= 5,04,000 – 63,000 = ₹ 4,41,000
Mr. Kartarsingh income falls in the slab 2,50,001 to 5,00,000.
∴ Income tax = 5% of (Taxable income – 250000) = 5% of (4,41,000 – 2,50,000)
= 95.50
Total income tax = Income tax + Education cess + Secondary and higher education cess
= 9550 + 191 + 95.50
= ₹ 9836.50
∴ Mr. Kartarsingh’s income tax is ₹ 9836.50
