What it does

Indian Tax Calc is an agent skill from taracodlabs/aiden. India tax calc: income, STCG/LTCG, advance tax, TDS (FY 2025-26)

Its SKILL.md is about 1.2k tokens, which your agent loads only when the skill is triggered. The skill folder holds 1 other file (for example `skill.json`).

It sits in Business, Finance & HR, covering Tax preparation. The repository describes itself as: Aiden — an autonomous AI agent and work engine built solo. It can operate your browser, terminal, files, apps, APIs, skills and tools, remember context, recover from failures… The licence is Apache-2.0.

When your agent uses it

  • Tasks that involve Tax preparation

Example prompts

  • “/indian-tax-calc”

What it can do on your machine

Read from SKILL.md and the folder at commit 3704204. It shows what the files ask for, not the result of running them.

  • Tool permissions

    Pre-approves nothing: there is no allowed-tools line, so your agent's usual permission prompts apply.

    From allowed-tools in the SKILL.md frontmatter.

  • Runs code

    No scripts in the folder and no shell commands in SKILL.md (its code samples are powershell).

    From the folder's file list and the shell code blocks in SKILL.md.

  • Network

    No URLs in SKILL.md.

    From URLs in SKILL.md, links to its own repository left out.

  • Credentials

    Names no API keys, tokens, secrets or passwords.

    From names ending in _API_KEY, _TOKEN, _SECRET, _KEY or _PASSWORD in SKILL.md.

Context cost

Indian Tax Calc loads about 1.2k tokens when it runs. Until then it costs about 20 tokens; SKILL.md has 272 words of instructions outside code blocks.

Always · name and description, kept in context so the agent knows when to use it
~20
When it runs · the whole SKILL.md, loaded when a task matches
~1.2k

Estimates: characters ÷ 4, the usual rule of thumb; real counts depend on the model's tokenizer. Scripts and assets cost tokens only if the agent reads them.

Safety

Auto-check passed

The automated check found no risky patterns in SKILL.md.

Automated static check — not a guarantee. Review scripts before installing. It scans the text of SKILL.md for risky patterns (piping downloads into a shell, reading credential files, hidden Unicode, destructive commands); files beside SKILL.md are not scanned.

Indian Tax Calculator

Calculate Indian income tax liability, STCG/LTCG on equity and F&O trades, advance tax installments, and TDS for FY 2025-26 — under both old and new tax regimes.

When to Use

  • User asks "how much tax do I owe on my salary / income?"
  • User wants to calculate STCG or LTCG on stock or mutual fund gains
  • User asks about tax on F&O profits
  • User wants to compare old regime vs new regime tax
  • User needs advance tax calculation or TDS estimation

How to Use

New regime tax slab (FY 2025-26)
powershell
function Get-TaxNewRegime {
  param([double]$Income)
  # FY 2025-26 new regime slabs (post Budget 2025)
  $slabs = @(
    @{UpTo=400000;  Rate=0},
    @{UpTo=800000;  Rate=0.05},
    @{UpTo=1200000; Rate=0.10},
    @{UpTo=1600000; Rate=0.15},
    @{UpTo=2000000; Rate=0.20},
    @{UpTo=2400000; Rate=0.25},
    @{UpTo=[double]::MaxValue; Rate=0.30}
  )
  $tax = 0; $prev = 0
  foreach ($slab in $slabs) {
    if ($Income -le $prev) { break }
    $taxable = [math]::Min($Income, $slab.UpTo) - $prev
    $tax += $taxable * $slab.Rate
    $prev = $slab.UpTo
  }
  # Rebate u/s 87A: nil tax if income <= 12,00,000
  if ($Income -le 1200000) { $tax = 0 }
  $cess = $tax * 0.04
  return [PSCustomObject]@{ Tax=$tax; Cess=$cess; Total=[math]::Round($tax+$cess,2) }
}

Get-TaxNewRegime -Income 1500000
Old regime tax slab (FY 2025-26)
powershell
function Get-TaxOldRegime {
  param([double]$Income, [double]$Deductions = 0)
  $taxableIncome = $Income - $Deductions
  $slabs = @(
    @{UpTo=250000;  Rate=0},
    @{UpTo=500000;  Rate=0.05},
    @{UpTo=1000000; Rate=0.20},
    @{UpTo=[double]::MaxValue; Rate=0.30}
  )
  $tax = 0; $prev = 0
  foreach ($slab in $slabs) {
    if ($taxableIncome -le $prev) { break }
    $taxable = [math]::Min($taxableIncome, $slab.UpTo) - $prev
    $tax += $taxable * $slab.Rate
    $prev = $slab.UpTo
  }
  if ($taxableIncome -le 500000) { $tax = [math]::Min($tax, 12500) }
  $cess = $tax * 0.04
  return [PSCustomObject]@{ TaxableIncome=$taxableIncome; Tax=$tax; Cess=$cess; Total=[math]::Round($tax+$cess,2) }
}

Get-TaxOldRegime -Income 1500000 -Deductions 150000  # 80C deduction
STCG tax on equity (held < 12 months)
powershell
function Get-STCG {
  param([double]$BuyPrice, [double]$SellPrice, [int]$Qty)
  $gain = ($SellPrice - $BuyPrice) * $Qty
  $tax  = if ($gain -gt 0) { $gain * 0.20 } else { 0 }   # 20% STCG from FY25-26
  return [PSCustomObject]@{ Gain=$gain; STCGTax=[math]::Round($tax,2) }
}
Get-STCG -BuyPrice 500 -SellPrice 750 -Qty 100
LTCG tax on equity (held > 12 months)
powershell
function Get-LTCG {
  param([double]$BuyPrice, [double]$SellPrice, [int]$Qty)
  $gain   = ($SellPrice - $BuyPrice) * $Qty
  $exempt = 125000   # ₹1.25 lakh LTCG exemption per FY (FY25-26)
  $taxable = [math]::Max(0, $gain - $exempt)
  $tax    = $taxable * 0.125   # 12.5% LTCG from FY25-26
  return [PSCustomObject]@{ Gain=$gain; TaxableGain=$taxable; LTCGTax=[math]::Round($tax,2) }
}
Get-LTCG -BuyPrice 200 -SellPrice 400 -Qty 1000
F&O tax (treated as business income)
powershell
# F&O profits/losses are added to regular income and taxed at slab rate
# No special rate — it's ordinary business income
function Get-FnOTax {
  param([double]$FnOProfit, [double]$OtherIncome = 0)
  $totalIncome = $FnOProfit + $OtherIncome
  $tax = Get-TaxNewRegime -Income $totalIncome
  return [PSCustomObject]@{
    FnOProfit    = $FnOProfit
    TotalIncome  = $totalIncome
    TaxLiability = $tax.Total
    Note         = "F&O taxed at slab rate; maintain books; ITR-3 required"
  }
}
Get-FnOTax -FnOProfit 200000 -OtherIncome 800000

Examples

"How much tax do I pay on ₹15 lakh salary under new regime?" → Get-TaxNewRegime -Income 1500000 — returns tax, cess, and total liability.

"I bought 500 shares at ₹200 and sold at ₹350 after 8 months. What's my STCG tax?" → Get-STCG -BuyPrice 200 -SellPrice 350 -Qty 500 — 20% on gain.

"Compare old vs new regime for ₹12 lakh income with ₹1.5 lakh 80C deductions" → Run both functions and display side-by-side.

Cautions

  • Tax rates shown are for FY 2025-26 based on Budget 2025 announcements — verify against official IT Act before filing
  • LTCG exemption limit and STCG rate changed in Union Budget 2024 (effective FY25) — double-check the current year's rates
  • F&O losses can be carried forward for 8 years but only offset against business income, not salary
  • This calculator is for estimation only — always consult a CA for official tax filing
  • Surcharge applies for income > ₹50 lakh (10%) and > ₹1 crore (15%) — not included in base calculation
