Frequently Asked Questions

What is the zero tax limit for salaried employees in FY 2025-26?+
Under the New Regime for FY 2025-26, salaried employees with gross salary up to ₹12,75,000 pay zero income tax. The Standard Deduction of ₹75,000 reduces income to ₹12,00,000, and Section 87A provides a full rebate of ₹60,000 on the remaining tax.
Which regime is better for me — Old or New?+
It depends on your deductions. If your income is up to ₹12,75,000, the New Regime gives zero tax. If you have significant HRA, 80C investments, home loan interest or NPS deductions, the Old Regime may save more. Use our free tax calculator to compare both for your exact income.
What documents are needed to file ITR for FY 2025-26?+
You need: Form 16 from employer, PAN, Aadhaar, bank statements (all accounts), rent receipts (if claiming HRA), investment proofs (80C, 80D, NPS), home loan interest certificate, and Form 26AS / AIS / TIS from the income tax portal.
What is the due date for ITR filing for FY 2025-26?+
The due date for salaried individuals for FY 2025-26 (AY 2026-27) is 31st July 2026. Late filing attracts a penalty of ₹5,000 under Section 234F (₹1,000 if income is up to ₹5 lakh). Interest under Section 234A also applies on unpaid tax.
Can I switch between Old and New Regime every year?+
Yes. Salaried employees can switch between regimes every financial year by informing their employer at the start of the year. The New Regime is now the default from FY 2025-26. You must explicitly opt for Old Regime if you want to claim deductions.
What is Section 80CCD(2) and why is it important?+
Section 80CCD(2) covers Employer NPS Contribution — up to 10% of Basic Salary. It is the only investment deduction available under both Old and New Regimes. If your employer contributes ₹60,000 to your NPS, this amount is deducted from your taxable income even under New Regime — saving significant tax at your slab rate.
Is e-verification mandatory after filing ITR?+
Yes. After filing your ITR, you must e-verify it within 30 days using Aadhaar OTP, net banking, demat account or bank account. An unverified return is treated as if it was never filed, and penalties may apply.
