Income-tax rates and surcharge apply across categories, with Health and Education Cess increasing overall tax liability. Income-tax for the relevant assessment year is charged at First Schedule rates and increased by a surcharge calculated as provided; net agricultural income above the de minimis threshold is notionally aggregated for rate application with a specified computation method (aggregate tax minus tax on agricultural income increased by a basic amount), with adjusted thresholds for specified elder individuals. The section prescribes differentiated surcharge rates and caps across taxpayer classes, governs surcharge treatment for withholding, collection and advance tax, mandates a Health and Education Cess on tax plus surcharge, and supplies key definitions.
