Finance Minister Nirmala Sitharaman announced the addition of a new section called 115BAC to the Income Tax Act in the Union Budget 2020 during her speech. Section 115 BAC is a new and voluntary income tax system for individuals and Hindu Undivided Families that is in effect from FY 2020-21. (HUFs). Let me guide you on the deduction allowed in new tax regime.

Deduction available in new tax regime:

The newly established section 115BAC of the Income Tax Act of 1961 deals with the new income tax structure. You as an individual and Hindu Undivided Families (HUFs) are the only ones who are affected by this section and alternate tax regime, which was introduced in the Union Budget 2020. The income tax slab rates have been cut significantly under this new regime, which is an important element. However, the higher rates come at the expense of a number of important income tax exemptions and deductions that were previously accessible under the old tax system.
