Automatic Income Tax Calculator for FY 2022-23 and FY 2023-24

Introduction

The Automatic Calculator in Excel format for Financial Year 2022-23 (Assessment Year 2023-24) and Financial Year 2023-24 (Assessment Year 2024-25) is an all-encompassing tool designed to simplify tax calculations. It includes a Salary Statement, Computation Sheets, and Form-16, tailored to assist taxpayers in navigating the recent changes in tax regimes.

Overview of Tax Regimes

In Budget 2020, the Government introduced a new tax regime featuring lower tax rates, which has continued into FY 2022-23. This new regime remains optional; however, in Budget 2023, the Government has strongly encouraged taxpayers to adopt it. For FY 2023-24, this new tax regime is set as the default option. Individuals may still choose to retain the traditional income tax regime when their employers are deducting TDS or during the filing of their Income Tax Returns (ITR).

Need for a Tax Calculator

Choosing the more favorable tax regime can be challenging for taxpayers without performing a comparative tax calculation between both options. The automated income tax calculator assists in evaluating tax obligations, allowing users to determine the preferred regime with lower tax implications during TDS deductions and ITR filings for both financial years.

Features of the Automatic Tax Calculator

This comprehensive tax calculator tool offers:

  • Salary Statement
  • Computation Sheets
  • Form-16 for both the new and old tax regimes
  • Sections for Income from House Property
  • Tax calculation sheets designed for easy printing

User-Friendly Functionality

  • Once users input their figures into designated blank cells, the calculator automatically computes tax, prepares computation sheets, and generates Form-16.
  • Users can print and save any desired sheets for their records.
