You can get this taxable income once you deduct all the deductions which come under section 80 from gross total income. Hence the first step in calculating the income tax would be to calculate gross total income.
Gross total income (GTI) :-

Gross total income is calculated by taking into consideration five heads of income they are

• Income from Salary
• Income from house property
• Income from business / Profession
• Income from Capital Gains
• Income from Other sources .

Add up incomes from each head to get gross total income. For most of assessees they will be having income from all the heads of income except third one or income from business or profession.

Once you get the gross total income all you need to do is deduct all the exemptions so as to get the taxable income.
