New 35% income tax band from July 2026
From the income year that started on 1 July 2026, chargeable income above Rs 12 million is taxed at 35%. The first Rs 500,000 stays at 0%, the next Rs 500,000 at 10% and the rest up to Rs 12 million at 20%. For individuals the new band takes the place of the 15% Fair Share Contribution, which now covers only the 2025-26 income year. Our salary, PAYE and income tax calculators already use the new bands.
