Tax Year |

By default the system will display with “Select” value. If there is only one tax year defined, the system will default the same. |

From the drop-down list box, select any one of the following categories to define the tax rate table for the current tax year.

To specify a default tax year
As you specify a default tax year, you indicate that the new tax year will inherit all the tax rates applicable to the selected default tax year.
Default From Tax Year |
From the drop-down list box select the tax year whose rate table is applicable for the current tax year. The drop-down list box contains list of all the tax years prior to the current tax year that have been created in the “Create Tax Year” activity. By default the system will display with a blank value. |
Note: As you specify the default tax year, the system will display the applicable tax slab details in the multiline. You can modify the details if any, and save the details.
To specify a tax slab
In the “Tax Slab” multiline specify the tax rates applicable for the tax year.
Income Over |
The start of the range of the income for which the specific tax rate is applicable. |
But Not Over |
The maximum income, beyond which the tax rate is not applicable. |

“Income Over” must be the same as the value of “But Not Over” in previous
row. For example, Income over 1 but not over 50000; Income over 50000
but not over 60000; etc.
If the “Income over” is not specified, the system takes the value as zero
and if “But Not Over” is not specified, the system will regard any value
exceeding the specified “Income Over” value in the corresponding row.
