There has been no change in the income tax rates for personal income taxpayers since 2017-18. However, in 2020-21, the government brought a new tax regime. But still, most people are liking the old tax regime, in which there has been no change. Given the apprehension of slowness in the international economy, the importance of the domestic market in India's growth rate has further increased. In such a situation, if people have more money to spend in their pockets to increase demand, then it will be good for the economy as well. In these circumstances, most of the experts are expecting some relief from the Finance Minister to the income taxpayers this time. Middle-class taxpayers are also hoping that the Modi government, which has given free food grains to the poor and incentives to the corporate sector, maybe kind to them this time too.
