About the Nepal income tax calculator
This calculator estimates personal income tax in Nepal on your total annual income — salary, business profits, rent and other sources combined. It applies the progressive slab rates set by the annual Finance Act, subtracts the deductions you are allowed, and shows the resulting tax with a slab-by-slab breakdown. It is useful for anyone estimating their yearly tax bill, checking a projection, or working out how a change in income or deductions affects what they owe.
How income tax is calculated
Tax in Nepal is charged progressively: the first slice of taxable income is taxed at the lowest rate, the next slice at a higher rate, and so on up the scale. Only the portion of income that falls inside each band is charged at that band’s rate, which is why the marginal rate (the rate on your last rupee) is higher than the effective rate (total tax as a share of income). The calculator lists each band so the figure can be checked by hand.
Deductions you can claim
Retirement contributions through the Social Security Fund, Employees Provident Fund or a Citizen Investment Trust scheme are deductible up to the lower of Rs 5,00,000 or one-third of income. Life-insurance premiums are deductible up to Rs 40,000, health insurance up to Rs 20,000, and building insurance within its own annual limit. Deductions reduce taxable income before the slabs are applied.
Social Security Tax and the female rebate
Where the first slab carries a 1% charge, that is the Social Security Tax on employment-style income. It is waived when you contribute to the SSF or an approved retirement fund. A resident woman may also claim a 10% rebate on the tax. Both options are toggled in the calculator.
The result is an estimate for planning. Your actual assessment depends on your income sources and the IRD’s rules — confirm before relying on a figure for filing.
