Taxes are a very important part of the country, and as dutiful citizens, it is essential that we all pay our taxes on time. This is especially applicable to all the salaried people who qualify for tax payments. Additionally, there is a gamut of ways for tax saving as per the Income Tax Act, 1961. Thanks to these deductions, you can substantially reduce the amount of tax you have to pay, although it all depends on the kind of claims you make. In this article, we will talk about some of these exemptions and deductions.
