Wait 5 sec.

India's Income Tax Act, 1961, is set to be replaced by the Income Tax Act, 2025, effective April 1, 2026. To ease this transition, the Income Tax Department has launched an online tool. This utility allows taxpayers to compare provisions side-by-side, mapping old sections to new ones. It simplifies understanding changes in tax laws and aids informed decision-making.
