The Break-Even Point
To benefit from the Old Regime, you need to claim total deductions greater than:
₹4,00,000
This is a high target. It usually requires 80C (₹1.5L) + 80D (₹25k) + a substantial Home Loan Interest or HRA claim of at least ₹2.25 Lakhs.
Conclusion
For a ₹11 Lakh salary, the New Tax Regime is efficient and simple. It saves you nearly ₹76,000 compared to the Old Regime if you have no deductions. Switch to Old Regime only if you have heavy home loan interest or HRA.
