Wealth Tax Calculation Methodology

Our professional wealth tax calculator employs institutional-grade algorithms based on current fiscal legislation and global tax principles. The computation follows a systematic approach to determine precise liability.

Core Calculation Formula

The fundamental wealth tax calculation follows this formula[citation:2]:

Wealth Tax Formula:
Net Taxable Wealth = Σ(Gross Assets) - Σ(Allowable Exemptions)

Wealth Tax = Apply Progressive Slabs(Net Taxable Wealth)

Where:
Gross Assets = Real Estate + Financial Assets + Business Assets + Other Assets
Allowable Exemptions = Primary Residence + Permitted Debts + Other Deductions

Progressive Tax Slab Structure (2026)

The calculator applies progressive taxation based on net wealth thresholds:

Example Calculation

Consider an individual with ₹2.5 Crore in total assets and ₹15 Lakh in exemptions:

Example Computation:
Total Gross Assets = ₹2,50,00,000
Allowable Exemptions = ₹15,00,000
Net Taxable Wealth = ₹2,35,00,000

Wealth Tax Calculation:
- First ₹30,00,000: Exempt = ₹0
- Next ₹70,00,000 (₹1Cr - ₹30L): 0.25% = ₹17,500
- Remaining ₹1,35,00,000: 0.5% = ₹67,500
Total Annual Wealth Tax = ₹85,000

Is wealth tax calculated on gross or net asset value?
Wealth tax is calculated on net taxable wealth, which is gross asset value minus allowable exemptions and permitted deductions.
