a) Rs 146628.12                        b) Rs 146638.12                   c) Rs 146628.21                         d) Rs 146627.12

Solution:

We are give;

Taxable income slab:

Annual income = Rs 1885000

Zakat paid = Rs 47125

To find the taxable income we first exclude from annual income the amount which he paid away as zakat !

i-e

Taxable income = Annual income – zakat = 1885000-47125=Rs 1837875

This taxable income  lies in the above given slab range , so tax will be ;

Tax = Rs 1400000 + the 17.5% of amount exceeding than Rs 1800000

but, amount exceeding than Rs 1800000 = 1837875-1800000=Rs 37875

so,

\[ Tax = 1400000+\frac{17.5}{100}\times (37875 )=1400000+ 6628.12=Rs146628.12 \]

So , he has to pay tax of Rs 146628.12 on his annual income
