10,50,0000-50,000 = Rs 10,00,000
2- After this you can save 1.5 lakh rupees under 80C. In this, you can take advantage of income tax exemption on investment in EPF, PPF, ELSS, NSC and up to Rs 1.5 lakh annually in the form of tuition fees for two children.
10,000,000- 1,50,000 = Rs.8,50,000
3- If you invest up to Rs 50,000 annually in the National Pension System or NPS on your behalf, then under section 80CCD (1B) of the Income Tax Act, you get help in saving income tax separately.
8,50,000-50,0000 = Rs.8,00,000
4- If you have taken a home loan, then under section 24B of Income Tax, you can claim tax exemption on the interest of 2 lakhs.
8,00,000-2,00,000 = Rs.6,00,000
5- One can claim deduction up to Rs 25,000 for health insurance premium including cost of preventive healthcare check-up for spouse, children and yourself under Section 80D of Income Tax. Apart from this, if you buy health insurance for the parents, then you can get an additional deduction of up to Rs 50,000. The condition is that the parents should be senior citizens.
