Many announcements have been made in the budget that are extremely useful, yet they have received little discussion. Let's explore these announcements and understand their significance.

Easy access to TCS paid on car purchases

Adjustment Facility for TCS: Tax Collected at Source (TCS) paid on car purchases and foreign holidays can now be adjusted with the tax deducted from your salary every month.
Proof Submission: By submitting proof of TCS paid to the company, this adjustment can be facilitated.
Direct Reduction in Tax Burden: Instead of waiting for a refund through filing an Income Tax Return (ITR), the tax burden will be reduced directly in the salary.
Previous Process: Previously, the money was refunded only after filing the ITR and processing the refund.

Rollover facility on capital gain

Unchanged Rollover Benefits: The rollover benefit on capital gains remains unchanged.
Conditions for Benefit: The method to avail of this benefit remains by fulfilling the rollover conditions.
Exemption on Reinvestment: Profits reinvested under rollover conditions are exempt from taxes.
Property Investment: Expenditure on purchasing property or construction can avail the rollover benefits.
Government Claims: The government asserts that the benefit of rollover is available up to Rs 10 crores.
54 EC Bonds: Exemption up to Rs 50 lakhs is available on the purchase of selected bonds under Section 54 EC.
