Solution

(1) Total Yearly income = 6,20,000
(2) Total deduction (According to 80C)

Public Provident Fund

1,00,000

Insurance

80,000

Section 80C permits a maximum deduction

1,50,000

(3)Amt. given to CM's Relief Fund (According to 80 G) = 10,000

(4) Taxable income = (1) - [(2) + (3)]

= 6,20,000 - [1,50,000 + 10000]

= 4,60,000

The taxable income is in the slab 3 lakh to 5 lakh.

Income tax = (Taxable income - 3,00,000) ×5100

= (4,60,000 - 3,00,000) ×5100

= 1,60,000 ×5100

= 8000

Education cess is levied on income tax.

Education cess = 8,000 × 2100 = 160

Secondary and higher education cess = 8,000 ×1100 = 80

Total Income tax = 8000 + 160 + 80 = 8,240

Tax payable by Mr. Ahmed is ₹8,240
