How this calculator works
Income tax is progressive almost everywhere: your income is sliced into bands, and each slice is taxed at its own rate, not the top rate applied to your whole income. A standard deduction (or personal allowance) is subtracted first, so only income above that threshold is taxed at all.
Switch the country selector to compare systems — the mix of bracket widths, deduction size and any extra levy (like India's cess or Japan's local tax) is what makes otherwise similar incomes end up with very different effective tax rates around the world.
