New Tax Regime Exemption List
The New Tax Regime was introduced with the altered tax slabs and concessional tax rates. It applies to all taxpayers, including individuals, Hindu Undivided Families (HUFs), and Association of Persons (AOPs).
In the case of salary income, the Standard Deduction of Rs 50,000, which was previously only available under the Old Tax Regime, was extended to the new tax regime. Under the New Tax Regime, you can enjoy a tax-free income of Rs 7.5 lakhs, which is after you apply the standard deduction and tax rebate.
