Income Tax on ₹25 LPA — New vs Old Regime FY 2025–26
At ₹25 LPA, annual tax under new regime is approximately ₹4,50,000 (effective rate ~18%). The 20% slab applies on income between ₹12L–₹15L. Perquisites and RSUs begin to significantly affect total compensation at this level.
Which Regime to Choose at ₹25 LPA?
