No, I was not talking about the income tax changes applied in 2025. Rather, I am talking about the draft income tax reforms released in February 2026. Their government has increased limits. For example, there is significant increase in child education, hostel accommodation, etc. But I did not hear about any increase in the limits for disability tax exemption, which is limited to only 1.25 lakhs from many years and yes, this is covered under the old regime.
