    Relief in personal income tax was not expected.
    Finance minister has done a wonderful job in bringing down the rates upto 5 lakhs of taxable income to 10 percent and starting the 30 percent slab from 8 lakhs instead 5 lakhs earlier.
    As a senior citizen, I will have more money in my hands to cater for my increasing health bill and escalating cost of living.

    ANOMALY BETWEEN THE INCOME TAX AND TDS

    Under the new income tab slabs there is going to be problem in TDS deductions

    Suppose a person’s salary is 35000/= per month. Annual salary is 4,20,000. Due to FDs in the banks the interest amount is 35,000. Total income is 4,55,000.. His income tax to be paid will be 29,500. With educational cess the total tax to be paid is 30,385.

    Now TDS deductions will be :

    By employer on the salary of 4,20,000 will be 42,000(at 10% TDS rates)

    By banks on the Fds etc will be 3,500.

    The total deduction comes to 45,500 which is much more than the actual income tax to be paid.. If he saves on 80C investments and with medical insurance and charity and other deductions the difference will be much more. For women employees and senior citizens it will be disaster.If his/her total income is more than 1.6 lakhs or whatever minimum slab is, he/she cannot give 15 H or any other certificate to the employers or the banks not to deduct TDS

    The finance ministry has therefore to drastically reduce the TDS rates. The TDS must not be deducted from senior citizens either on their pensions or bank deposits.

    You as an orsganisation should take it up with Ministry of Finance.

    There is very less done for a middle class salaried male/female. With the recession still not recovered completely the jolt of taxes are still a burden for less salaried employees. Mr. Pranab has not given a thought to middle class individuals which will end up paying the tds more than the previous year. Hiking the petrol/diesel prices automatically effects on commodities too since everything is interdependent on transport

  • J P jaiswal wrote on 5 March, 2010, 5:43

    By not raising the threshold limit of Rs1.60 lakh FM has proved that he cares only for rich people. He has given tremendous benefit to people whose taxable income is more than Rs3lakh. Will he rectify it?

  • Ajit Kr singh from Ranchi wrote on 7 March, 2010, 3:50

    Minimum tax freelimit should have been Rs. 2 lakh. after that Limit of deduction should have been raised to “actual” saving under section C group like PF, PPF,LIC,VPF etc.
    Minister has raised prices of petrol/diesel etc but tax concession on conveyance allwance is still Rs. 800 per month. Is this justified. Secondly concession of Rs. 100/- on education allownace, Rs. 300/- on Hostel allowance etc . is very nominal. Finance minister should have raised all these limits considering inflation.

  • VP Venkatraman wrote on 23 March, 2010, 11:18

    Since there is no Social Security provided by the Govt. I feel more should have been done for Senior Citizens particularly women. Many Seniors live on Interest earned from Fixed Deposits. So the the threshold limit on the Interest Income should be increased substantially. At the time of taking Fixed Deposits the Banks/ Companies can take a declaration of the total estimated Income of the person and not deduct any TDS if the total income is below the the Taxable Limit. The Finance Minister should consider this and do something.

    The Gratuity slab is increased to 10 Lakhs from 3.5 lakhs.
    Is it mandatory for private companies (listed in BSE)?
    Or it is the ceiling and not mandatory and cos can still pay 3.5 which I understand is the lower slab?

    Refer to earlier post by Venkat on “anamoly between income-tax and TDS”. I am a lady aged 63 years. I have an annual income of Rs. 4 Lacs, almostl all from Bank deposits. Considering the current income tax slabs of “1.9 lacs- No Tax and Up to 5 Lacs 10% tax”, my tax commitment for AY11-12, works out to only about Rs. 21,000. As banks are deducting 10% TDS on all interest income over Rs. 10,000, I end up paying Rs 40,000 as tax through TDS. Why dont the govt reduce the TDS rate to 5% from Rs 10,000 to Rs 20,000, and 10% later on. Can I give From-15G to avoid avoid such excessive TDS? Can some body help me on this?

    FM could have done better than this. since the inflation rate Vs yearly salry/income growth is not that as inflation. For exmplae :- vegetables / grocessry items have inflation almost 55 – 60%.

  • vinod wrote on 29 July, 2010, 0:04

    it seems absurd that
    1. on FDs bank gives higher rate of interest to those sbove 60 years of age, considering them senior citizen
    2. Railway gives concession to those above 60 years of age, considering them senior citizen
    3. Income tax department says senior citizen is the one above 65 years of age
    4. Govt. retires people at the age of 60 years
    All these are part of the same Government, having different definitions of senior citizen, cant we have one simple
    definition clarifying as one for all, hope those in seat of power pay a glance at it
