I am paying ₹70-75k tax for the salary of just 12lakhs. I have 2yoe so not much aware of what all I can do to save taxes.

Please help me with the same. Maybe I can plan it more appropriately.

My current declared investments are ₹8300 rent per month.
80C 1.5lakh (EPF + ELSS)
50K NPS
35-40k Education Loan interest.

I think you have maxed out legally . The tax that you are paying should be looked upon as national service - it's not much compared to what you earn.

This year I paid 62 lakh tax. I would be happy to pay 30 but honesty comes with a huge price.

The day I feel cheated or odd one out I will leave this country. But i definitely don't mind helping this country with 30l from taxes. Though at my level it's tremendous hard work, stress and sacrifice to earn my salary

I love how someone summarised it beautifully. When we were alone, government wanted us to do all things by ourselves. Now that we are earning something, they want a share of our pie.

Why are people suggesting him to invest in 80C, he already mentioned he has 1.5lakh invested. The only thing more you can show is if you have any health insurance under 80D

Open a ppf account…you can save 1.5 lakh a year

Saving would be of 46k in tax @30% slab. Investment needs to be of 1.5 lakh

Very less. The time OL was released, u should have contacted ur frnds and took suggestions

Bro just watch some YouTube videos on tax saving .You will get an idea

You can invest in 80c to decrease your tax liability.
Opt for Equity based MF in SIP mode.

Rookie mistake do not go for LIC for tax saving.
Health insurance for self and parents also help you with additional tax saving.

You need to check with your employer also about tax declaration, if it's not done chances is your whole income is being considered taxable.

Invest in PPF and take some insurance in 80c ..also claim rent amount as well
