“New Regime Anthem – AY 2025–26” 🎶
(Verse 1)
It’s tax time, friend, come take a seat,
The new regime's got a simplified beat.
No more chaos, no more fuss,
Flat tax slabs, come ride with us!
(Chorus)
🎵 Slab by slab, let’s break it right,
Pay your taxes, sleep at night.
No more long deductions’ game,
Just clean slabs with a brand-new name. 🎵
(Verse 2 – The Slabs)
₹0–3 lakh? That zone is tax-free,
₹3–6 lakh? Just 5%, you see.
₹6–9 lakh? Now it’s 10,
₹9–12, it’s 15 then.
₹12–15? A 20% ride,
Above ₹15, 30’s your guide.
(Bridge – Rebate Power!)
Under ₹7 lakh? No tax you pay,
Section 87A saves the day!
Standard Deduction's still alive,
₹50,000 helps you thrive.
(Verse 3 – What’s Not Allowed)
No 80C, no HRA grace,
No home loan cuts in this place.
No LTA, no mediclaim,
But lower rates still win the game.
(Verse 4 – What You Can Claim)
Employer NPS? Still on track,
Transport aid for disabled, no lack.
VRS, gratuity – some things stay,
Even leave cashouts get their way.
(Bridge 2 – Surcharge Talk)
Income above ₹5 crore max?
Surcharge capped at 20% tax!
Earlier it was a hefty 40,
Now it’s fairer – clean and sporty.
(Chorus Reprise)
🎵 Tax made simple, rates are low,
No more papers in a flow.
New Regime shines, plain and neat,
With fewer claims, but a smooth beat. 🎵
(Outro)
Choose your regime, old or new,
Pick what financially works for you.
File it right, avoid the fine,
And stay tax-smart – every time!
