Understanding Reasons for Change in Income Tax

In the world of income taxes, change is inevitable. Imagine your tax amount for a month suddenly shifts, and you are left wondering why. It's a common scenario, and it's often due to change in factors like your salary, declarations, tax regime, rebates, or personal details. This can be confusing for both employees and administrators, leading to numerous inquiries. In this article, we'll explore a simple solution that unveils the reasons behind these changes, making tax management clearer and easier for everyone.

To understand changes in Monthly Tax Deductions, go to a particular employees profile by typing their name in the search bar. Then, click on Finances (1), and select Manage Tax(2), and within that section, click on Declarations(3), and scroll down to access the Monthly Tax Deduction Details(4).

The arrow marks here serve as indicators of changes in the monthly tax deduction. Red coloured arrows signify an increase in the tax amount, while green arrows indicate a decrease.

To see why the amount changed, click the arrows next to the tax amount, and a pop-up will explain the reasons in detail.

Note:

1. The change and reasons will be captured when payroll is finalised for a month and there is a difference in tax amount in comparison to the previous finalised month’s tax. 
2. Component level setting changes will only be shown to the privileged users and employee will need to reach out to their admins for details in such cases.
3. If in any month payroll is rolled back and re-finalised, then changes will be captured at the time of each finalisation. Once the you view the details in monthly tax projection, reasons for change will be shown in case there is change in tax payable at the time of re-finalisation of payroll compared to the previously finalised tax value for the same month.
4. For the month of April, changes will not be shown since April is the first month of the financial year and forms the basis for tax projections of the entire year. 

In summary, understanding the reasons behind changes in tax projections is key to managing your finances. The feature we have introduced simplifies this process, reducing the need for questions by providing clarity to your income tax. Embrace this change, and take control of your financial future.
