Old vs New Tax Regime: Which is better for FY 2025-26?

The Indian income tax system offers two regimes. The old regime allows deductions under Sections 80C, 80D, HRA, and others, but has higher base tax rates. The new regime offers lower tax rates and a higher standard deduction (₹75,000) but removes most deductions.

For FY 2025-26, the new regime is the default. It benefits those who don't have significant deductions. However, if you have substantial HRA claims, 80C investments, home loan interest, and health insurance premiums, the old regime may still save you more.

This calculator compares both regimes side-by-side so you can see exactly which one results in lower tax and higher take-home pay. Enter your CTC and deductions to get a clear recommendation.
