How Employees Can Save on Income Tax in 2023?
At the end of each fiscal year, every taxpayer pays income taxes. Individuals pay different rates of income tax based on their income and other profits. Individuals, senior citizens, and corporations all have different tax rates. As long as salaried individuals pay their taxes and file their ITRs on time, the government provides benefits in the form of tax deductions on certain investment mechanisms that can be claimed to save taxes. Furthermore, you can deduct taxes under sections 80, 80CC, and 80CCD up to Rs 1.5 lakhs under the following:
Public Provident Fund (PPF):
This is a fantastic tax-saving scheme that is available at most Indian banks and post offices for a period of 15 years at a tax-free interest rate of 7.10%, with the interest rate changing quarterly. Section 80C of the Income-Tax (I-T) Act allows for PPF tax deductions of up to Rs 1.5 lakh. Furthermore, the profits are tax-free.
Employee's Provident Fund (EPF):
Contributing to an EPF can also help you save money on your taxes. An employee must make a contribution to the EPF scheme, and the employer must make an equal contribution. When the employee retires, he or she receives a lump sum payment that includes both his or her own contributions and contributions from the employer, as well as interest on both. The 12% contribution to the EPF scheme counts towards the Section 80C limit of Rs.1.5 lakh.
Fixed deposit:
A fixed deposit, also known as an FD, is a savings product offered by banks and non-banking financial companies (NBFCs) to customers. A large sum of money can be invested in an FD account at a fixed rate of interest for a set period of time. You receive the lump sum plus interest at the end of the term, which is a good money-saving strategy. Investors in tax-free Fixed Deposits, which are deductible under Section 80C of the Indian Income Tax Act of 1961, can also save money. Investors in tax-saving fixed deposits can also deduct up to Rs.1.5 lakh.
Unit linked insurance plan:
This method can also help you save money on taxes. ULIPs are long-term investment vehicles that allow taxpayers to invest in either equity or debt funds, or both. A ULIP is a type of insurance plan that provides long-term investment as well as financial protection for your family in the event of a calamitous event. ULIPs also allow you to switch between funds based on your financial objectives. You can save taxes by investing in ULIPs under sections 80C and 10(10D) of the Income Tax Act of 1961.
