TAX CALCULATION
What Is Tax Calculation
Tax calculation is the process of determining taxable income and final tax liability under the Income-tax Act, 1961. It involves the classification of income, the application of exemptions and deductions, the adjustment of losses, and the calculation of tax, surcharge, and cess.
In practice, errors often occur due to incorrect income classification, missed deductions, or a misunderstanding of applicable tax rates. These mistakes commonly lead to demand notices, interest under section 234A, 234B, or 234C, or delayed refunds.
Professional tax calculation helps prevent such issues before they arise.
