Advance tax payment is a concept where people with tax liability of more than Rs. 10000 in a year choose to pay the tax throughout the year in instalments rather than paying it altogether towards the year end. The government has a set schedule for advance tax payment if someone fails to adhere to  it then they are liable to pay interest on advance tax. Let me tell you how it is calculated right here.
