_(Other benefits like HRA & LTC are over and above these!)_
So, you are not paying any tax on income upto Rs 7.25 lakhs !
On,another Rs.2.5 lakhs, you are paying only Rs12,500 tax @ 5% ! That makes it Rs. 9.75 lakhs!
So on first Rs.10 lacs one pays less than 2% tax.
Other benefits most of the Middle class families avail!
■ 100% Taxfree dividend income upto Rs10 Lacs
■ 100% Taxfree PPF interest (no cap)
■100% Tax free interest on Tax exempt bonds (no cap)
■100% interest repayment of education loan taken either for self, or for ward..U/s 80E
So,what else do we expect from the government !
