Your Percentile

How This Works

We use official data from the Income Tax Department to calculate your position among all ITR filers in India. The data is fetched live from the e-Filing Portal.

  • Data Source: Income Tax e-Filing Portal statistics (live API)
  • Income Brackets: Up to Rs 5L, Rs 5-10L, Rs 10-50L, Rs 50L-1Cr, Rs 1-5Cr, Rs 5-10Cr, above Rs 10Cr
  • Updated: Based on latest available FY data

Understanding Your Percentile

If you are in the Top 10%, it means 90% of ITR filers earn less than you. Being in the Top 1% means you earn more than 99% of all individual ITR filers.

Remember: Only about 7% of Indians file ITR. If you are filing taxes, you are already in a higher income group compared to the general population. Being top 50% among ITR filers likely places you in the top 5-7% of all Indians.
