Income Tax Rate for FY 2013 - 2014

When calculating the income tax liability each year, the first and foremost aspect which comes across one’s mind is the tax slabs. In this year’s annual budget, the government has not brought about great relief for the common man by keeping these tax slabs same as the previous years. Here is a look into the slabs for the current financial year to help you prepare your investments and income, and to be able to file your tax returns accurately in the following assessment year.

Basic Tax Jargons

Financial Year, Assessment Year and Previous Year, do these commonly used income tax jargons often confuse you? This is what they mean.

  1. Financial Year (FY) – Duration of one year between 1st April to 31st March of the following year, in which all financial information are reported. The current financial year is 1st April 2013 to 31st March 2014.
  2. Assessment Year (AY) – The income of a particular financial year is assessed in the following financial year, which is known as the assessment year. For the current financial year, income will be assessed in the assessment year 2014-2015.
  3. Previous Year (PY) – The financial year preceding the assessment year, the income of which is assessed in the following assessment year. Assessment year 2014-2015 will assess income for previous year 2013-2014.

 

Income Tax Slabs
