Source: CBDT’s utility to check provisions of the Income-tax Act, 1961 vis-à-vis the Income-tax Act, 2025 (incometaxindia.gov.in), as on 1 October 2026. Where one old section is spread across several new ones, the first is the main provision and the others hold related definitions or conditions. “No corresponding section” means the provision was omitted or not carried into the 2025 Act.

Disclaimer: Computed to the best of our knowledge, as per the law — including the section changes under the Income-tax Act, 2025 — in force on the date this website was last deployed (1 Oct 2026). Results are estimates for guidance only and are not tax, legal or investment advice. Please verify with the Act, rules and notifications, or a qualified professional, before relying on them. Rates and limits last reviewed on 28 Sep 2026.

How to use the Income-tax Act 2025 Section Mapper

  1. 1

    Keep “1961 Act → 2025 Act” to find the new section for an old one, or switch to “2025 Act → 1961 Act” to see which old sections a new one replaces.

  2. 2

    Type a section number (80C, 194-I, 10(13A)) or a subject (house rent, depreciation, advance tax). Spaces, hyphens and the word “section” are ignored.

  3. 3

    Use the topic filters for TDS and TCS, exemptions under section 10, Chapter VI-A deductions, capital gains or penalties — or “No new section” to see what was dropped.

  4. 4

    Where one old section is split across several new ones, the first new section is the main provision; the others hold related definitions or conditions.

How the 2025 Act is organised

1961 Act: 298 numbered sections plus hundreds of lettered ones (80C, 194J, 115BAC …) → 2025 Act: 536 sections and 16 Schedules

Section 10 exemptions → Schedules II to VII (e.g. 10(13A) HRA → Schedule III(11))

All TDS (193–196D) → section 393, salary → 392, TCS → 394

“Previous year” and “assessment year” → one “tax year” (section 3)

The mapping is for finding the right provision. The 2025 Act is not a word-for-word copy, so read the new section before relying on it — thresholds, conditions and wording can differ. For transactions up to 31 March 2026, the 1961 Act still applies.

Most-searched old sections and their new numbers

  • 80C deductions (LIC, PPF, ELSS) → section 123; 80D health insurance → 126; 80G donations → 133; 87A rebate → 156.
  • 10(13A) house rent allowance → Schedule III(11); 10(10) gratuity → section 19; 24(b) home-loan interest → section 22.
  • 115BAC new tax regime → section 202; 44AD presumptive business income → section 58; 44AB tax audit → section 63.
  • 139 return of income → 263; 143 assessment → 270; 148 reassessment notice → 280; 234E late TDS-return fee → 427.
  • 192 salary TDS → 392; 194C, 194J, 194-I, 194Q and other TDS → 393; 206C TCS → 394; 206AA no-PAN rate → 397.

Why the section numbers changed

The Income-tax Act, 2025 rewrote the 1961 Act in simpler language, removed provisions that had become redundant and grouped related provisions together. Lettered sections such as 80CCD or 194LBC no longer exist; their content sits in tables inside a single section or in a Schedule. That is why one new section often replaces several old ones — section 393 alone covers almost every TDS provision from 193 to 196D. For the payment code, rate and threshold of each TDS item, see the TDS rate chart 2026-27.

Notices, forms, returns and certificates issued for tax year 2026-27 onwards quote the 2025 Act numbers, while orders and returns for earlier years continue to cite the 1961 Act. Most CAs and finance teams will need both for several years.

What “No corresponding section” means

Around 260 entries of the 1961 Act have no counterpart in the 2025 Act. Most were already inactive — for example the fringe benefit tax chapter (115W–115WM), dividend distribution tax (115-O, 115R), the Settlement Commission (245A–245M) and old profit-linked deductions such as 80HHC. Pending matters under those provisions continue under the savings clause in section 536.
