Clause 19 of Income Tax Bill, 2025 restructures salary deductions by consolidating provisions from Sections 16 and 10 of Income Tax Act, 1961 into a comprehensive tabular format. Key modifications include a two-tier standard deduction (Rs. 75,000 for taxpayers under section 202(1) and Rs. 50,000 for others), streamlined gratuity provisions under Serial Numbers 3-6, and rationalized pension and leave salary provisions under Serial Numbers 7-9 and 13-14 respectively. The amendment simplifies Voluntary Retirement Scheme benefits with a Rs. 5,00,000 limit and consolidates retrenchment compensation provisions. This restructuring aims to enhance administrative efficiency, improve compliance, and reduce potential litigation through clearer computation methodologies and reduced cross-referencing requirements.
