Interpreted Prediction
For taxpayers under the new tax regime, employee contributions to NPS (under sections 80CCD 1 and 80CCD 1B) are not tax-deductible. This trend is expected to continue, with a projected 90% of taxpayers opting for the new regime in the upcoming year, implying a significant portion will not receive these employee contribution benefits.
AI Evaluation Notes
The prediction stated that 90% of taxpayers may opt for the new regime in the next year. While I cannot confirm the exact percentage, multiple sources indicate a significant shift towards the new tax regime, suggesting the prediction was somewhat accurate. It is difficult to give a very accurate rating without precise figures on the percentage of taxpayers opting for the new regime.
