I have been employed by two employers during the same year. Can I claim a basic exemption of 2.5 lakhs against each of the salary incomes?
Look, whether it is the old tax regime or the new tax regime, incomes from both your employers are added together under the head income from salary and this is reflected in your ITR. And these figures are out of a Form 16. So that means you cannot claim basic exemptions separately for the different employers. Similarly, all incomes that an individual earns throughout the year is put under five brackets which are :
Income from Salary
Income from House Property
Income from Other Sources
Capital Gains
Income from Business or Profession.
And all incomes from each of these heads are added up together to calculate your basic exemption limit.
