What you missed this year

From your documents

Deductions you didn't claim

  • Extra ₹50,000 under NPS (80CCD-1B)

    ~₹15k tax

    Upload your NPS statement if you contributed — this is over and above the 80C ₹1.5L cap, so it doesn't double-count.

  • Why new regime saved you ₹14,000

    already applied

    ₹75,000 standard deduction + lower slab rates beat old regime until your 80C + HRA + 80D claims add up to ~₹3.5L.
