Frequently Asked Questions — ₹11 Lakh Salary

How much income tax do I pay on a ₹11 Lakh salary in FY 2026-27?

On a ₹11 Lakh salary (FY 2026-27, AY 2027-28), a salaried taxpayer with only the standard deduction pays ₹0 under the new regime and ₹1,32,600 under the old regime (no other deductions). The new regime gives a ₹75,000 standard deduction plus a ₹60,000 Section 87A rebate that makes income up to ₹12 lakh tax-free.

Is a ₹11 Lakh salary taxable under the new regime?

No. After the ₹75,000 standard deduction your taxable income is ₹10,25,000, within the ₹12 lakh Section 87A rebate, so your new-regime tax is zero.

Old or new regime — which is better for a ₹11 Lakh salary?

For a ₹11 Lakh salary with no deductions, the new regime is lower: ₹0 vs ₹1,32,600, a saving of ₹1,32,600. The old regime can overtake only with large deductions — use the calculator with your actual 80C/80D/HRA figures.

Does a ₹11 Lakh salary attract surcharge?

No. Surcharge applies only above ₹50 lakh total income, so a ₹11 Lakh salary has none — just the 4% health & education cess on tax.
