Why does greytHR’s payroll system by default select the old tax regime for new employees?

Created by Product Content Team, Modified on Thu, 19 Jun at 5:50 PM by Product Content Team

When the admin adds new employees to greytHR, the system automatically sets them to the new tax regime by default. However, if the admin sets the USE_NEW_TAX_REGIME_BY_DEFAULT option to No in the Advanced Settings page, the system will default to the old tax regime.

To enable the automatic selection of the new tax regime for new employees, the admin must perform the following actions:

From the greytHR Admin portal, navigate to the Settings icon > System Settings > Income Tax > Advanced Settings. The Advanced Settings page opens.
From the Financial Year dropdown list, select the relevant year.
Select the USE_NEW_TAX_REGIME_BY_DEFAULT row from the table, double-click the cell under the Value column, and enter Yes.
Click Save to update the changes. A success message appears.
