Dear All,For AY-2014-15. If Agriculture Income. =800,000 Non AgricultureIncome=400,000 Total Income for tax calculation =12,00,000 Tax on total income =190,000 Less:tax on agriculture income (800000+200000) =130,000 Net Tax on the above =60,000 (190,000-130,000) But if I calculate tax on non agriculture income directly on 400,000/- it will come only 20,000/- Why the extra tax 40,000(60,000-20,000) coming on agriculture income ?
