new-tax-regime

The New Tax Regime is a scheme of Income tax in India first proposed in Union Budget 2020–21. Subsequent Budget of FY2021-22 did not see any major announcements in this regime. During the Budget 2022–23, reports emerged that New Tax Regime was getting poor response and Government is considering to make it more attractive among the taxpayers.
The latest changes were presented in the Union Budget 2023-24 which brought five significant changes in the earlier existing (FY 2022–23) income tax policy. Improved rebate, modified tax structure/slabs, reduced surcharges, higher exemption on leave encashment for retirees in private-sector and extension of standard deduction in the New Tax Regime were announced by the Finance Minister, Nirmala Sitharaman during Parliament's Budget Session on 1 February 2023.
