  6. Total deductions: Rs. 2,35,000
  7. Taxable income: Rs. 7,65,000
  8. Net tax payable: Nil

As you can see, by claiming all of the deductions and exemptions that are available to you, it is possible to bring your taxable income down to zero, even if you have an income of Rs. 10 lakh. However, it is important to note that the specific deductions and exemptions that you can claim will depend on your individual circumstances. You should consult with a tax advisor to determine which deductions and exemptions are available to you and how to claim them.
