Solution : - Salary Income                                                                                                                                                          = Rs. 3,74,500

       Savings:

  1. Contribution to GPF         = Rs. 25,000
  2. LIC Premium                    = Rs. 30,000
  3. NSC                                    = Rs. 40,000
    Total                                    = Rs. 95,000                                                                                                        =      (-) 95,000
    Taxable Income = Rs. 2,79,500                                                                                                                 = Rs. 2,79,500

Computation of Income Tax:

  1. Tax on first Rs. 1,00,000                        = Nil                                                                                               =          Nil
  2. Tax on next Rs. 50,000                           = 10% of Rs. 50,000
                                                                        = Rs. (10/100 X 50,000)
                                                                        = Rs. 5,000                                                                                  =     5,000
  3. Tax on next Rs. 1,00,000                        = 20% of Rs. 1,00,000
                                                                        = Rs. (20/100 X 1,00,000)
                                                                        = Rs. 20,000                                                                                =  20,000
  4. Tax on next Rs. (279500 - 250000)      = Rs. 29,500
                                                                        = 30% of Rs. 29,500
                                                                        = Rs. (30/100 X 29500)
                                                                        = Rs. 8,850                                                                                 = (+) 8,850
    Tax Payable = Rs. 33,850                                                                                                                            =    33,850

Education Cess = 2% of Rs. 33,850

                              = 2/100 X Rs. 33,850

                   Cess = Rs. 677.00                                                                                                                      Cess  =(+)       677 
  Net Tax Payable = Rs. 34,527                                                                                                                                =   34,527

Tax deducted at source = (Rs. 3,000 X 11) = Rs. 33,000

Tax to be paid in the last month = Rs. (34,527 - 33,000)

                                                          = Rs. 1,527
