Indiana Income Tax in 2026

Local Income Taxes

Every Indiana county adds its own income tax (roughly 0.5% to 3%), which this calculator does not include.

Worked Example: $60,000 in Indiana

  1. Federal taxable income: $60,000 − $16,100 standard deduction = $43,900, so federal income tax is $5,020.
  2. Social Security $3,720 + Medicare $870 = $4,590.
  3. Indiana taxable income: $59,000 after Indiana's deductions and exemptions, so state income tax is $1,740 (your top Indiana rate is 2.95%).
  4. Take-home: $48,650 a year. Each extra dollar you earn is taxed at a combined marginal rate of about 22.6%.

401(k) effect: putting 6% ($3,600) into a traditional 401(k) saves about $432 of federal tax and $106 of Indiana tax, so your take-home falls by only $3,062 even though $3,600 goes into savings.

Hourly workers: $25 an hour full time ($52,000 a year) comes to about $42,458 after taxes in Indiana, or roughly $20.41 for each hour worked. Convert other wages with the hourly to salary calculator.
