Tamil Nadu manufacturing and IT roles often use monthly pay; check Shops & Establishments OT rules separately.

Old Regime (with §80C) and surcharge above ₹50 lakh are supported as simplified estimates. Full HRA exemption math is still omitted — treat results as directional.

New Tax Regime (default)

Slabs start with nil tax up to ₹4 lakh of taxable income, then 5%–30% bands. A ₹75,000 standard deduction applies for salaried income. Section 87A can zero tax when taxable income is within the rebate limit; surcharge may apply above ₹50 lakh, then 4% cess.

EPF and professional tax

Employee EPF is estimated at 12% of an assumed basic (40% of gross) unless you enter exact pre-tax deductions. Professional tax is a simplified state estimate and may be ₹0 in some states/UTs.

When total income exceeds ₹50 lakh. Rates step up at ₹1 crore / ₹2 crore / ₹5 crore (New Regime surcharge is capped at 25%).
