How to Check Your Tax Savings Using ChatGPT?

Checking your tax savings manually can be tedious, but AI tools like ChatGPT can do it for you in just 2 minutes! Here’s how:

Step 1: Download Your Form 16 (Part A and B)

  • Your employer issues Form 16 at the end of the financial year.
  • Ensure you have Part B, which contains details of your taxable income and tax paid.

Step 2: Upload Form 16 to ChatGPT

  • Open ChatGPT and initiate a conversation.
  • Upload your Form 16 (Part B).
  • Write or modify based on your need”Govt of India has revised the tax rates for FY25-26. Here is my Form 16 Part B of last year and no salary hikes in this year or there is salary hike from X CTC per annum to Y CTC per annum (remove one of them). I am using New Tax Regime (modify to old tax regime if you are using that). Tell me how much tax savings I would have from next financial year.Old Income Tax ratesIncome Tax Slabs (₹) Tax Rate (%)

Step 3: Get Your Tax Savings Report

ChatGPT will:

  • Extract key salary details from Form 16.
  • Compare your tax liability under both old and revised new tax slabs.
  • Show your tax savings per year and per month.

For example, if your taxable income is ₹24L, your tax might reduce by ₹1.25L per year under the revised regime, leading to monthly TDS savings of ₹10,400.

Is ChatGPT Safe for Uploading Personal Tax Data?

While ChatGPT is a powerful tool, many people worry about privacy and data security. Here’s what you need to know:

  • Encryption & Security: ChatGPT does not store or retain uploaded files.
  • No Human Access: Uploaded documents are processed securely without human intervention.
  • Best Practice: If concerned, remove sensitive details (like PAN, Name, Bank details etc.,) before uploading Form 16.

Can I compute this manually?

Yes, you can always compute manually by bucketing your income into old tax rates Vs New Tax Rates, however this would take some time. Accuracy needs to be reverified before you conclude on this

Conclusion

The revised tax slabs for FY2025-26 could lead to significant tax savings. Instead of manually calculating, you can use ChatGPT to check your tax savings in just 2 minutes. However, always ensure your data privacy by removing sensitive details before uploading. Stay updated and make informed financial decisions to maximize your tax benefits!
