Agricultural income is not taxable. But taken for aggregation to determine applicable slab rates for taxable income. Tax on 6.50 Lacs(including agricultural income) will be calculated and tax on 3.50 Lacs(basic exemption limit plus agricultural income) will be reduced for calculation of tax payable.

By default, agricultural income is exempted from taxation and not included under total income. The Central Government can’t impose or levy tax on agricultural income. The exemption clause is mentioned under Section 10 (1) of the Income Tax Act of India.
However, state governments can charge agricultural tax. As of the latest amendment, income from agriculture, if within INR 5000 in a financial year, will not be accounted for tax purposes. Anything above that will be taxable as per the applicable rates. As per the finance act, the total tax liability for a person would include the agriculture income added to the non-agricultural portion.
Though being exempted from tax through Section 10 (1), tax on agricultural income still persists in the state level if the mentioned income exceeds INR 5000 per year and if the total income excluding agricultural income is more than the basic exemption limit. For firms, non-individuals and companies it is easier to pay the associated tax as the tax is charged at a flat rate on the chargeable income. For salaried individuals, it might increase the tax they need to pay because of the aggregation of income.
