      DIRECT TAXES

      A. Rates of tax for financial year 2026-2027

      A. RATES OF INCOME-TAX

      In respect of income of all categories of assessees liable to tax for the assessment year 2026-27, the rates of income-tax have either been specified in specific sections of the Income-tax Act, 1961 (like section 115BAA or 115BAB for domestic companies, section 115BAC for individual/Hindu undivided family (HUF)/Associations of Persons (AOP) (other than a co-operative society)/Body of Individuals (BOI)/Artificial Juridical Person (AJP) and section 115BAD or 115BAE for cooperative societies) or have been specified in Part I-A of the First Schedule to the Bill. There is no change proposed in tax rates either in these specific sections or in the First Schedule. The rates provided in sections 115BAA or 115BAB or 115BAC or 115BAD or 115BAE of the Act for the assessment year 2026-27 would be same as already enacted. Similarly, rates laid down in Part III of the First Schedule to the Finance Act, 2025, for the purposes of computation of “advance tax”, deduction of tax at source from “Salaries” and charging of tax payable in certain cases for the financial year 2025-26 would now become Part I of the First Schedule.
