We also open the session for questions after this post.
simplification and rationalization of tax provisions. The old regime of taxation provides for many exemptions deductions subject to certain conditions and documentation requirements. This makes the claim of exemption or deduction complex and cumbersome. To ease this process, new regime was introduced.
Most of the exemptions are not available under new regime. However, the following exemptions are still retained in the new regime as well
• The following special allowances u/s 10(14) are exempted under new regime
• Transport allowance granted to a divyang employee for commuting between residence and office
• Conveyance allowance granted to meet the expenses of official nature
• Allowance granted to meet the cost of travel on tour or on transfer (basically business travel / transfers)
• Rebate u/s 87A is still available under both the regimes
Conditions are -
• Salaried employees have to choose this in the tax return itself. Restrictions applies to business income people.
• Income Tax return has to be filed within due date in order to exercise the option
Option to the employees to elect whether old or new regime of taxation may be given by the employer. If option not exercised by the employee, old tax regime needs to be followed.
Once the option is exercised, cannot be changed for TDS purposes. Employee can still change at the time of filing the tax returns.
