What is Advance Tax Calculator?

Advance tax is the income tax paid in instalments during the financial year instead of a lump sum at the end. An advance tax calculator estimates the instalments you need to pay.

If your total tax liability exceeds ₹10,000 in a year, you must pay advance tax in four instalments — June, September, December, and March.

How does the Advance Tax Calculator work?

Advance tax is paid in four instalments: 15% by 15 June, 45% by 15 September, 75% by 15 December, and 100% by 15 March.

The calculator estimates your total tax liability and splits it into the required instalments, helping you avoid interest under Sections 234B and 234C.
