Standard Deduction

For middle-class salaried people and pensioners, it is a relief with the hike in the standard deduction from Rs. 40,000 to Rs. 50,000.
Earlier the standard deduction of Rs. 40,000 was proposed in Budget 2018, after replacing Rs. 15,000 and Rs. 19,200 as medical reimbursement and travel allowance. Now it has been hiked to Rs. 50,000 that means in AY 2020-21, all pensioners and salaried people would be eligible for a fixed deduction of fifty thousand.
