Calculation step by step

  1. Annual salary = Rs 120,000 × 12 = Rs 1,440,000
  2. It falls in the slab Rs 1,200,001 – Rs 2,200,000: Rs 6,000 + 11% of the amount above Rs 1,200,000.
  3. Amount above Rs 1,200,000 = Rs 240,000; 11% of it = Rs 26,400
  4. Annual tax = Rs 6,000 + Rs 26,400 = Rs 32,400
  5. Monthly tax = Rs 32,400 ÷ 12 = Rs 2,700

Effective tax rate: 2.25% of your salary. Marginal rate (on your next rupee): 11%.
