Corporate tax is a direct tax levied on the profits earned by businesses, corporations, and other legal entities. It is a percentage of the taxable income and contributes to government revenue.
Corporate tax is calculated by applying the applicable tax rate to the taxable income of a company, which is the income after deducting allowable expenses, exemptions, and deductions.
As of my last update in January 2022: Regular domestic companies: 22% (without incentives), and 25.17%
(with surcharge).
New manufacturing companies: 15%.
Foreign companies: 40% (plus surcharge and cess).
Regular companies have a 22% tax rate, while new manufacturing companies enjoy a reduced rate of 15% if incorporated after October 1, 2019, and commencing operations before April 1, 2023.
Surcharge is an additional charge applied to the basic tax liability, often based on income slabs. Cess is a nominal tax to fund specific purposes. Both impact the effective tax rate.

Companies typically pay corporate tax annually when filing their income tax returns. Some may make advance tax payments throughout the financial year based on estimated income.
Yes, companies can engage in legal tax planning by optimizing the use of deductions, exemptions, and incentives provided by tax laws.
