These are the new IncomeTax slabs for the financial year 2021 to 2022 (From April 1st 2021 to March 31st 2022). Once you choose this Income tax slab you can’t switch back to the old regime during the current financial year.You can switch back to the old regime only during the next financial year. The big difference between Old and New tax regimes is you can’t claim any of the deduction including PF or under 80C (See the Tax slab below)
