As per the Finance Act, 2002, a surcharge at the rate of 5 % is to be added to the income tax payable i.e after deducting the tax rebate (section 88-A and 88-B) from the Income Tax due if the taxable income is more than Rs.60000/-.  

FORMULA FOR COMPUTATION OF INCOME TAX: 

Between Rs.50000   and Rs.600001

Income Tax = (Taxable Income x 0.10)-5000

Rs.60000  and Rs.150000

Income Tax = ( Taxable Income x 0.20)-11000 

Rs.150001 and  above

Income Tax = ( Taxable Income x 0.30)-26000 

 Example:

                  Taxable Income                                    = Rs.100000

(After deducting Standard deduction, deductions under 10(13-A) HRA, 80-G donations etc.)
