Last updated: 20 Aug 2026

Quick answer

Section 80C lets you deduct up to ₹1,50,000 of eligible investments; tax saved = min(investment, 1,50,000) × your slab rate. For example, ₹1,50,000 at the 30% slab saves ₹45,000. Enter your 80C amount and slab above.

Section 80C (old regime) allows a deduction up to ₹1.5 lakh for investments like PPF, ELSS, EPF, NSC and life insurance. Tax saved = eligible amount (capped at ₹1.5 lakh) × your slab rate.

  1. 1 Enter your total 80C investment.
  2. 2 Select your income-tax slab.
  3. 3 We cap the deduction at ₹1.5 lakh and show the tax saved.
