Surcharge

Tax Glossary Definition

Surcharge

A supplementary charge imposed on the amount of income tax when an individual’s or entity’s total taxable income crosses prescribed limits. It effectively increases the overall tax liability for higher-income taxpayers.

Example: If total income exceeds ₹50 lakh, a 10% surcharge is added to the computed tax amount.
