Business Development Manager

Outside of the standard 80C BS, is there any major way to save tax? I can’t stand a small set of people giving out so much tax to the government and so much burden on the other side without any significant social benefits. This one’s especially for the experienced ones.

If you are salaried and earning 1Cr+, how are you saving on taxes? My net tax burden comes up around 40 lakh every year (and it hurts)

Looking to understand if and how you are able to save on taxes

Got an offer, I calculated the tax and it will be around 3L ( currently it was around 1.5L) it's crazy, I don't want to pay 25k each month as tax.
My Gross will be around: 22L
I'm 24, I don't have any health insurance other than the company provided one, no home/education loan.

Software Developer

This really hit to core

We pay first world level taxes for a third world social security with 0 benefits.

How do I find a CA? I tried searching grapevine but could not find any relevant post where how we can find one is mentioned..

Is it beneficial to hire a CA for salary upwards of 30LPA?
Like, can they help me save more tax than the usual 80C/NPS/Medical Insurance savings, I seem to have already maxed them out.
Also if we opt for new tax regime, can CA help in saving additional money?

Any help would be appreciated :)

Tax Saving

Business Analyst

So this is something that I have been researching for a while, apart from very well known instruments such as-(only mentioning the ones that should be done by everyone irrespective)
* 1.5L annually through 80C
* 50k standard deduction 
* HRA claim
* Donation claims
* Insurance/Medical claims

How are you folks optimising your post tax income?
Would really like to hear it from people getting >= 24 LPA fixed, since from this point onwards a major chunk (almost 20% goes in taxes) and it really hurts.

Tax Savings for 30% slab

How much taxes can be saved on a 40 lakhs package? I am planning to hire a CA but looking for rough estimates here. I can structure my salary in any way I want and can invest in all schemes except housing loans.

Performance Marketer

In India people who are earning beyond 70 lpa. They tend to fall under the high tax bracket which involves surcharge on tax too. Which could level up their tax too.
Now is this tax worth it when compared to what tax payers get from the govt?
Total tax % could really be higher for an individual. Given the tax %, would it be wise to consider moving out from India for better value for tax?
Now this tax is considering after exhausting all the tax savings sections and FBPs except the political donations.
Genuine answers only. 
Coming days I would be asking a few more tax related questions.
