Income Tax on ₹25 LPA — FY 2025-26

💡 At ₹25 LPA, new regime tax is ~₹1,56,000. Old regime can beat this with ₹5L+ deductions. This is where home loan interest and high HRA make the old regime genuinely competitive.

At ₹25 LPA, new regime taxable income after ₹75K standard deduction = ₹24.25L. Tax: ₹1,50,000 + 4% cess = ~₹1,56,000. This is your new regime baseline.

Old regime break-even: approximately ₹5 lakh in total deductions. If you have home loan interest (₹2L) + NPS (₹50K) + 80C (₹1.5L) + 80D (₹25K) + HRA (₹75K+), old regime starts saving more than new regime.
