31 July 2024 Section 87A of the Income Tax Act provides a rebate for individual taxpayers. For the financial year 2023-24, if an individual's total income after deductions is up to ₹5,00,000, they are eligible for a rebate of up to ₹12,500. This rebate is deducted from the total tax payable, effectively making the tax liability zero for those whose income does not exceed ₹5,00,000. This benefit is available to residents of India and applies under both the old and new tax regimes.
