Get a CA rather than asking random advice here. Invest with setting up a goal.

Spoke with my CA, you can't. 30% tax is inevitable. New regime is the way to go because 80C won't save you much compared to it

What do you do and what is your yoe. And how do I become this.

You can invest in these products - PPF, EPF, NPS, Food and Telephone coupons(if company gives).  
 Not a financial advise, DYOR or consult a CA.

How to pay 0 tax when income is around >= 12 LPA?

Data Scientist

I have always been very intrigued about managing my own finances, never hired a CA till now. 

But every year when the tax return filing time comes I run into the same thought - Am I paying too much taxes, is there a way to plan it better?

wanted to get some information on how are you guys managing your taxes. 

- Do you guys have a dedicated CA? does hiring a CA helps? 

- How do you plan your finances? investing/Saving/restructuring to avoid paying the maximum taxes? 

- Some people setup a side business to set off some recurring losses/expenses to some extent. Does that work in long term? 

- In terms of wealth generation, what is your strategy? How much you are able to invest? What assets are good in your POV?

P.S. - Before someone comes up with you need to pay taxes so India can grow. I understand your POV but IMO, I am not able to get the benefits/infra in return, but I with all my heart believe in India’s growth story.

Staff Engineer

Welcome to Software Engineers's Private Community

Those who are earning more than 50lpa base how much tax do you end up paying? 😶‍🌫️

Tax on 50lpa+

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

How are you saving taxes on 1Cr+ income?

Since the tax season is upon us, I wanted to check how do you folks handle tax related things? 
1. What are some tricks you use for tax saving?
2. Do you work with a CA or handle taxes yourself?
3. For folks having salary>30lpa- which tax regime have you chosen?

How do you handle taxes?

Govt of India is best at killing Middle Class. What percentage of your total CTC did you pay in tax. Income Tax department id the new Sahukar.

Percentage of Total CTC did you pay in tax ?

Analyst

I’m starting my first job this month, CTC-14L
I’m not sure but assuming I’ll get 80-90K in hand
Considering the job is in mumbai, the rent and other expenses would be high considering it to be 40-50K (pls tell how much it should be at max) 
Also how much taxes will I be paying and how to save it max
I really need your help, how do I start investing? Can I put all in Small cap MF, what would you advice? What should be the split between Stocks and MF, and in MF how much in which categories? 
Also it would be great if you can recommend the best 2-3 MF in your portfolio in each categories, and 5-10 stocks for Stock SIP for long term
Thank you so much 😭

Any tax planning recommendations / tips / third party suggestions for someone earning ~25lpa ?

Tax Planning

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

Guys... I made some good decisions and ended up having an opportunity to pay myself 36 LPA but, that means, about 9.4LPA tax.

What do I do? I want to get a home loan so keeping a higher salary would make the banks happy but then I also lose almost half of it to taxes.

Any advice from high earners and other fellow startup founders?

Tax 😨😨😱

I just started my first full time job and will be filing ITR for 1st time next year, no one in my family has been in high tax slab previously so not much experience from there :D

Some questions:

- Almost 50% of my base pay is getting used in paying EMIs (Mostly mortgage) of my family, nothing is on my name, all on father's name, is there a way to claim this in deduction ?

- We have our own house in a tier 3 city and I'm getting 30k/month as HRA, what will be safe HRA amount to claim ?

- Can we claim any other expenses in deduction ? Leave travel allowance seems useless to me as I'm working remotely.

- Which tax regime do you prefer ? New or old ?

I could have done investments to save taxes but nothing is left after all the expenses and nothing on my name 😛

Advice needed for filing tax

I'm thinking of going with the new regime and I'm really dumb with deductions.

From what I've read, other than the Employer's contribution to EPF, everything falls under taxable income.
