| Scenario | In-hand a month | Difference |
|---|---|---|
| New regime (the figure above) | ₹13,932 | — |
| Old regime, no deductions beyond your own PF | ₹13,932 | Same |
- No income tax under the new regime: taxable income after the ₹75,000 standard deduction is ₹1,05,781, inside the Section 87A rebate's ₹12,00,000 limit.
- Both regimes give the same take-home here, because neither charges any income tax at this level.
- ESI applies: gross pay of ₹15,065 a month is within the ₹21,000 ceiling, so 0.75% (₹113 a month) is deducted, and you're covered for ESIC medical care.
- No professional tax in Karnataka below ₹25,000 gross a month, so none is deducted here.
