What this means

On ₹15.0L gross with your declared deductions, the New Regime saves ₹1.1L/year. The New Regime's flatter slabs and ₹87A rebate beat the Old Regime here — your deductions aren't large enough to justify the higher slab rates. This is the default for most salaried Indians since Budget 2025.
