Tax rebate till 7 lakhs 😄
So if your income is below 7 lakhs, you'll pay zero in taxes...
But if your income crosses that 700000 number,
You'll pay full tax with zero rebate 🥲
- Applies on new tax regime
The old regime stays intact with no change.
In 2-3yr old regime will be gone rip tax planning

Up to 7 lakh is income then - tax will be zero in new regime.
Old slabs will intact in old system.
Old regime is there or removed?
any change in 80c saving limit?

No changes in old tax regime.
I have no idea why people are rejoicing the 7 lakh - no tax announcement. Are tax paying individuals in India that dumb?
Those who are earning 7 lakh are not paying tax already. 50k standard deduction and 1.5 Lac 80C brings the income to 5 lakh and thus no tax liability.
Now they have adjusted this in new tax regime. Nothing new.
Only first 7 lakh no tax and then brackets apply for additional income or no tax if taxable income is only up to 7 lakh?

Yes if income is 1 rupee more, than income tax will be calculated based on tax slabs
0-3 nil, 3-6 5% etc.

Govt promoting spending rather than saving.

govt will eventually abolish all tax saving schemes and rebates and the old tax regime will be discontinued or made irrelevant so that people automatically move to the new system. With current inflation and cost of living, specially in big cities, it is difficult to survive with 8-10 lacs salary. Most people have very little or nothing left after all the expenses and rent. To save some tax, people pushed for tax saving schemes and not all can complete 80C. Though the slab has been raised to 7 lacs, its still not enough. Those earning within 5-6 lacs were still not paying tax due to HRA benefits without any additional tax savings. But if people choose to move to new tax slab, there's no point in making tax saving FDs or ELSS etc. People not getting PF from companies could invest into PPF. Now with more in hand money (as no savings needed), most people in low income groups will tend to spend higher. Thats good for companies, bad for economy (and middle class families) in the long run. India is getting slowly pushed towards inflated credit economy like the west, where instead of depending on savings, people take loans and pay interest to banks and taxes to govt.
PS: Nothing against or for any political party. Any govt in power would do the same. THEY ARE ALL IDIOTS.
BJP govt wants everyone to move to the new regime. They didn't succeed when they introduced the new regime so some incentives seem to be added now. If they come to power next term, I guess they remove the old regime completely.
