Calculation step by step

  1. Annual salary = Rs 1,000,000 × 12 = Rs 12,000,000
  2. It falls in the slab above Rs 7,000,000: Rs 1,424,000 + 35% of the amount above Rs 7,000,000.
  3. Amount above Rs 7,000,000 = Rs 5,000,000; 35% of it = Rs 1,750,000
  4. Annual tax = Rs 1,424,000 + Rs 1,750,000 = Rs 3,174,000
  5. Monthly tax = Rs 3,174,000 ÷ 12 = Rs 264,500
