Tax Rebate Calculation Rules

Now let’s go to the main point. That is, let us know how to calculate the tax rebate.

If we calculate the tax rebate through an example, it will be much easier to understand, and you will understand very easily. So let us know how tax rebate is calculated through an example.

Think,

• A person’s monthly income is 50,000 TK
• Then his total income in 12 months is 600,000 TK
• Think his annual bonus is 50,000 TK
• Festival Allowance is 30,000 TK

Then the total annual income is 680,000 Tk

We know,

Normal and in men aged less than 65 years

• Income up to 3,00,000 TK is exempt from tax
• Above 3,00,000 up to 100,000 income tax will be paid at 5%
• Next 3,00,000 income tax is to be paid at 10%
• Next 4,00,000 income tax is to be paid at 15%
• 20% income tax on the next 5,00,000
• He will have to pay a 25% income tax on the excess income

For Ordinary women and men over 65 years of age

• Income up to 3,50,000 TK is exempt from tax
• Above 3,50,000 up to 100,000 income tax will be paid at 5%
• Next 3,00,000 income tax is to be paid at 10%
• Next 4,00,000 income tax is to be paid at 15%
• 20% income tax on the next 5,00,000
• He will have to pay a 25% income tax on the excess income

300,000 Tk will be deducted first tax-free from the person’s total income as per the above conditions. After that, he has to pay tax on the remaining 380,000.

We know,

5% tax on the first 100,000 TK above 300,000 TK
Then the value of 5% on the first 100,000 of 380,000 is 5,000

Remaining (380,000 – 100,000) = 280,000 Tk

We know that the tax on the next 300,000 is 10%.
Then the remaining 280,000 TKs will be 10% tax (280,000 x 10%) = 28,000 TK

Then the total tax payable by the above person is (28,000 + 5,000) = 33,000 TK

 Tax Rebate Calculation and Computation Rules

If he wants to get tax rebate benefits from his total income, he can invest 20% of the total income per the current rules and regulations of Bangladesh.

Then 20% of his total income is 136,000 TK; that is, he can invest this 136,000 taka of his total income.

A tax rebate benefit of 15% will be provided from the money he invests. Then the value of 15% of 136,000 is (136,000 x 15%) = 20,400 TK

Therefore he will get a total tax rebate benefit of 20,400 TK

Then his total income tax was 33,000. Then after deducting the tax rebate benefit of Tk 20,400 from this total tax, the remaining is (33,000 – 20,400) = Tk 12,600

After taking advantage of the tax rebate, he has to pay tax on his total income of only 12,600 TK. Therefore he has to pay tax only 12,600 instead of 33,000 TK. And this is the benefit of the tax rebate.
