How it's calculated

Annual taxable income = monthly × 12 (or the annual amount you enter). Tax is summed slab-by-slab: FY 2083/84 widths 10 lakh @ 1% SST, 5 lakh @ 10%, 10 lakh @ 20%, 15 lakh @ 27%, remainder @ 29%. SSF contributors may skip the 1% SST on the first 10 lakh.

About this calculator

This calculator estimates Nepal individual income tax under the progressive bands used for FY 2083/84: 1% Social Security Tax on the first NPR 10 lakh, then 10%, 20%, 27% and 29% on successive slices. Enter monthly or annual taxable income (after the deductions your payroll actually applies), then optionally mark yourself as an SSF / approved retirement-fund contributor so the first-band 1% SST can be waived the way many employers do it.

A common mistake is typing gross salary and treating the result as your IRD assessment. Allowances, CIT, insurance, and couple-filing rules change taxable income. Another is mixing calendar years with the Nepali fiscal year that starts in Shrawan. Use this page to check a slab-wise NPR breakdown before you compare a job offer or a raise — then confirm against the current Finance Act, IRD notices, and your employer’s payroll memo.

Worked idea: NPR 50,000 monthly is NPR 600,000 annual. That sits inside the first NPR 10 lakh band, so tax is driven by the 1% SST (or zero in that band if SSF waiver applies), not by the 20%+ rates that only apply much higher up. For richer Nepal options, pair this tool with salary-tax if you need a generic educational table.

Source of record: Inland Revenue Department practice and the Finance Act slabs encoded in the calculator handler. Always re-run after a budget speech. This is educational, not a filed return.

Frequently Asked Questions

The engine is coded for Nepal FY 2083/84 personal bands published as: first NPR 10 lakh at 1% Social Security Tax (SST), the next 5 lakh at 10%, the next 10 lakh at 20%, the next 15 lakh at 27%, and income above NPR 40 lakh at 29%. Re-check after each Finance Act — the handler documents this table, not a later unpublished bill.
Tick it if you contribute to SSF or an approved retirement fund. The first NPR 10 lakh band is then taxed at 0% in this model (1% SST waived), matching the comment in the Nepal income-tax handler. Confirm with HR/IRD — eligibility is statutory, not guessed by this form.
Enter taxable income after the deductions your payroll actually applies (CIT, insurance, etc. where allowed). Typing gross pay treats allowances as taxable and overstates tax. The tool does not auto-subtract exemptions.
Monthly multiplies by 12 to get annual taxable income, then runs the slabs. Annual uses the number as-is. Nepal’s fiscal year starts in Shrawan; this is a 12-month arithmetic conversion, not a Shrawan–Ashadh pro-rate.
No. This estimates annual individual tax on the taxable amount you type. TDS is withholding at source on a payment. Year-end liability can differ after credits, couple status and amended returns.
No. Only the individual progressive table is modelled. Dependent, couple and disability reliefs are outside this engine — treat the result as a starting comparison.
Effective rate is total tax ÷ annual taxable income. Only the slice above NPR 40 lakh is taxed at 29%; lower bands stay at 1%/10%/20%/27%. A raise is taxed at the marginal band, not the whole income at 29%.
No. It is an educational estimate. File through IRD systems and keep employer TDS certificates. The result note itself says verify with IRD or a tax advisor.
1% of NPR 10 lakh is NPR 10,000 — that is the maximum tax in the first band unless SSF waiver zeros it. Later bands have their own max-in-band figures shown in the breakdown.
No. Rates are code. After a Finance Act change, the handler table must be updated. Until then, treat FY 2083/84 as documented on this page.
