📐 Why are Old & New Regime residuals different?
📌 Key rule: Education Allowance and LTA are exempt only in the Old Regime. Under the New Regime, these amounts are treated as taxable Special Allowance — they stay in the residual, pushing it higher. This is one of the hidden costs of the New Regime for employees with children or frequent travel.
Self-occupied: deductible up to ₹2L in Old Regime only. Not available in New Regime.
Combined with Employee PF above, max ₹1.5L total
National Pension System (NPS)

No upper limit. Old Regime only.

Net taxable = 70% of gross. Applies to both regimes.
