Section FinderOld sections 189 to 210
The department's navigator lists these 70 old sections of the Income-tax Act, 1961 with the section of the Income-tax Act, 2025 that replaces them. "Checked" means the new section was found in the Act and is about the same subject; "number only" means the section exists but its wording differs, so the match rests on the navigator alone. A schedule row refers to a table in a Schedule of the new Act. Use the finder to look up one section.

Read on 13 November 2026. The Income-tax Act, 2025 came into force on 1 April 2026 (section 1(3)); the 1961 Act continues to apply to tax years before that (section 536 and the CBDT's FAQs). The mapping comes from the department's navigator, which was drawn up for the Bill, and each new number was checked against the enacted Act; rows that could not be checked are marked.
