## How this is calculated

Computes the quarterly advance tax instalment schedule on your estimated tax liability net of TDS already deducted, per Section 211.

**Formula:** `netLiability = max(0, totalTax - tds); schedule = 15/45/75/100% cumulative by Jun 15/Sep 15/Dec 15/Mar 15 (or a single 100% by Mar 15 instalment for presumptive-scheme taxpayers)`

**Variables:**

- `totalTax`: The selected regime's total tax on estimated total income, via calculateIncomeTax
- `tds`: TDS already deducted so far in the year

Reference: Income Tax Act Sections 208, 211; ClearTax advance tax guide (FY 2025-26).

## Assumptions

- No advance tax is required if net liability after TDS is Rs 10,000 or below (Section 208 threshold).
- Taxpayers under Section 44AD/44ADA/44AE presumptive taxation get a single 100%-by-15-March instalment instead of the normal four-instalment schedule.
- Underpaying an instalment attracts interest under Sections 234B/234C, not modelled here.
