How much tax on an 8 lakh CTC?
If ₹8 lakh is your gross salary, nil in the new regime. If your CTC also counts employer PF and gratuity, your taxable salary is lower still, so the tax is nil too.
Will TDS be deducted on an 8 lakh salary?
The new regime is the default, and the projected tax is nil after the rebate, so your employer should not deduct TDS on salary.
Is the old regime worth keeping at 8 lakh?
Only if you already have ₹2.5 lakh or more of deductions, such as HRA, 80C and 80D. Then both regimes are nil.
