If your income is less than Rs. 200,000/-, you need not worry about tax.
Your taxable income (income from salary) shall be reduced upto Rs. 100,000/- . How? You have a choice of investing in Public provident fund, purchase national saving certificate, pay for life insurance premium, invest in equity oriented mutual fund, invest in ULIP, invest in 5-year fixed deposit.
Your taxable income can be further reduce by another Rs. 15,000/-. How? If you pay for mediclaim insurance premium.
Even the interest you earn from saving bank account is exempt (tax-free) upto Rs. 10,000/- pa.
There are many other deductions available for individuals so as to reduce the taxable income. When the taxable income is reduced, so will the tax liability on it. That is how one saves tax. We all want higher income, but higher income means more tax liability. Higher income and higher deductions availed, lower tax liability and higher returns.
It is better to invest (which wil earn interest and come back to you in the near future) instead of pay tax (which is just like an expense having no real tangible benefits)
