Frequently asked questions

Can I avoid TDS on FD interest?

If your total income is below the taxable limit you can submit Form 15G (or 15H if 60+).

Is this the exact tax I will pay?

It is close for common cases, but it leaves out some special incomes, exemptions and set-offs. Confirm with Form 16, AIS and the Income Tax Department's own calculator before filing.

Does this calculator tell me what to do?

No. It is an educational estimate using published rules. It does not know your full situation. For a personal decision, speak to a qualified tax professional or a SEBI-registered investment adviser.
