Income-tax rates and surcharge application clarified, including aggregation rules for agricultural income and TDS/TCS computation. Income-tax for the assessment year is charged at First Schedule rates and increased by surcharge as prescribed. Net agricultural income above the threshold is aggregated with total income for tax computation but treated as if included after the exempt portion; tax on the aggregate and on the increased agricultural amount are separately computed and the latter deducted from the former to determine tax on total income, with surcharge applied where the total income exceeds the surcharge threshold. Rates for deduction and collection at source and for advance tax are set by relevant Parts and sections and are subject to analogous surcharge treatment. Definitions required for application of these rules are supplied.
