## How the old tax regime calculator works

The old regime is still available to anyone who chooses it. It has fewer, steeper slabs: nothing up to INR 2.5 lakh, 5% to INR 5 lakh, 20% to INR 10 lakh and 30% above, with higher exemptions for people aged 60 to 79 (INR 3 lakh) and 80 and over (INR 5 lakh).

In exchange it allows a long list of deductions. The calculator applies each with its legal cap: INR 50,000 standard deduction; HRA exemption by the three-limb formula; 80C up to INR 1.5 lakh; your own NPS under 80CCD(1B) up to INR 50,000; 80D health insurance up to INR 25,000 for your family and INR 25,000 or INR 50,000 for parents; home-loan interest on a self-occupied home up to INR 2 lakh; 80TTA savings interest up to INR 10,000; 80E education-loan interest without a cap; and eligible donations.

The 87A rebate in the old regime covers tax only when taxable income is INR 5 lakh or less, worth up to INR 12,500, with no marginal relief above it.

Taxable income = gross income − INR 50,000 − HRA − 80C − 80CCD(1B) − 80D − 24(b) − 80TTA − 80E − 80G

## Worked example: Vikram, INR 16 lakh with a home loan

Vikram lives in his own flat, so he has no HRA, but he pays INR 2 lakh a year in home-loan interest. He fills 80C, puts INR 50,000 into NPS and has a INR 25,000 health policy. His deductions total INR 4.75 lakh and his old-regime tax is INR 1,56,000. The new regime would still charge less: INR 1,13,100, so he'd save INR 42,900 by switching.

## Good to know

-   Proofs matter in the old regime: rent receipts, the landlord's PAN for rent above INR 1 lakh a year, premium receipts and the home-loan interest certificate.
-   Home-loan principal counts inside the INR 1.5 lakh 80C limit, not on top of it.
-   80D is capped separately for you and for your parents, and includes up to INR 5,000 for preventive health check-ups.
-   Professional tax is deductible from salary in the old regime but not in the new one.

## Frequently asked questions

What are the old regime slabs for FY 2026-27?

Below 60: nil to INR 2.5 lakh, 5% to INR 5 lakh, 20% to INR 10 lakh and 30% above. Aged 60 to 79: nil to INR 3 lakh, then the same. 80 and over: nil to INR 5 lakh, 20% to INR 10 lakh and 30% above. 4% cess applies, and surcharge above INR 50 lakh goes up to 37%.

Is the old regime being abolished?

Not for FY 2026-27. It remains an option you can choose, though it is no longer the default. The Income-tax Act, 2025 kept both regimes.

Can I claim both HRA and home-loan interest?

Yes, if you pay rent where you live and the house you own is elsewhere or not yet ready for possession. You need genuine rent payments and the home-loan certificate; claims for the same city are scrutinised more closely.

How much tax does 80C actually save?

It depends on your slab. A full INR 1.5 lakh saves INR 7,800 at 5%, INR 31,200 at 20% and INR 46,800 at 30%, including cess. In the new regime it saves nothing.
