AMENDED

Standard deduction for salaried employees increased to ₹75,000

Key mapping

Budget 2024 increased the standard deduction for salaried employees from ₹50,000 to ₹75,000 for FY 2024-25 (AY 2025-26) onwards, applicable under the new tax regime.

Explanation

The standard deduction (a flat deduction from salary income, no proof required) was increased from ₹50,000 to ₹75,000 effective FY 2024-25. This applies under both regimes but the enhanced amount is specifically relevant to the new tax regime. For FY 2024-25 and FY 2025-26, the deduction is ₹75,000. Under the IT Act 2025 (Tax Year 2026-27 onwards), this is codified under the relevant schedule. Verify on the income-tax portal before filing.
