About Salary Return: Income Tax Return Filing for Salaried Individuals for FY 2024-25

Introduction

Filing your income tax return (ITR) is an annual obligation for salaried individuals. For the financial year (FY) 2024-25, it is essential to understand the various deductions available, the tax rates under the new and old regimes, and the due dates for filing your return.

Deductions Available

Several deductions can help reduce your taxable income, thereby lowering your tax liability. Some of the key deductions available for salaried individuals include:

  • Section 80C: Deductions up to ₹1.5 lakh for investments in PPF, EPF, NSC, life insurance premiums, etc.
  • Section 80D: Deductions for health insurance premiums paid for self, spouse, children, and parents.
  • Section 24(b): Deductions up to ₹2 lakh on home loan interest for a self-occupied property.
  • Section 80E: Deductions on interest paid on education loans.
  • Section 80G: Deductions for donations to specified charitable institutions.

Tax Rates Under New and Old Regimes

For FY 2024-25, taxpayers have the option to choose between the old tax regime and the new tax regime. Here are the tax rates under both regimes:

Old Tax Regime

  • Up to ₹2.5 lakh: Nil
  • ₹2.5 lakh to ₹5 lakh: 5%
  • ₹5 lakh to ₹10 lakh: 20%
  • Above ₹10 lakh: 30%

New Tax Regime

  • Up to ₹3.00 lakh: Nil
  • ₹3.00 lakh to ₹7.00 lakh: 5%
  • ₹7 lakh to ₹10.00 lakh: 10%
  • ₹10.00 lakh to ₹12 lakh: 15%
  • ₹12.00 lakh to ₹15.00 lakh: 20%
  • Above ₹15 lakh: 30%

Deductions Under New and Old Regimes

Under the old tax regime, taxpayers can claim various deductions and exemptions such as those under Section 80C, 80D, 24(b), and others. However, under the new tax regime, most of these deductions and exemptions are not available. Taxpayers opting for the new regime will have to forgo these benefits in exchange for lower tax rates.

Standard Deduction

The standard deduction for salaried individuals under the old tax regime is ₹50,000 for FY 2024-25. However, the Budget 2024 has increased the standard deduction by ₹25,000, bringing the new limit to ₹75,000 under the new regime. This applies to all taxpayers opting to file their taxes under the new regime, as compared to the previous limit of ₹50,000.

Amendments in Budget 2024

The Budget 2024 introduced several amendments affecting salaried individuals. Key changes include an increase in the standard deduction from ₹50,000 to ₹75,000 under the new regime, and additional benefits for home loan interest under Section 24(b). These amendments aim to provide more relief to taxpayers and encourage investments in housing.
