How much is Indiana state income tax?

2.95% for 2026, charged on every dollar of taxable income rather than in bands. A personal exemption of $1,000 comes off first.

Does Indiana have local income taxes?

No local income tax applies in Indiana, so the state figure above is the whole of it.

Is Indiana a high-tax state overall?

On income, Indiana takes 2.91% of a $75,000 salary. But the whole burden is three taxes: sales tax here is 7% combined, 25th of fifty, and property tax 0.76%, 29th of fifty. The two pull in opposite directions, which is why a single ranking of "tax-friendly states" tells you little about your own household.

Is this the same as what my employer withholds?

Close, not identical. Withholding follows the W-4 you filed and your state’s equivalent form, which can carry allowances, extra withholding or a second job adjustment this page does not know about. The annual tax is what settles on your return; withholding is an instalment against it.

Form WH-4 is what sets your state withholding

It names your county of residence as of 1 January, and that single line decides which county income tax rate is withheld for the whole year.

What Indiana charges as well

Income tax is one of three. The other two do not come out of a paycheck, but they decide what the paycheck buys.

Sales and property tax in Indiana
Sales tax, state plus average local	7%	25th of fifty
Property tax on median home value	0.76%	29th of fifty

The state rate is 7% and local jurisdictions add 0% on average, reaching 7% where you shop. At 0.76% that is about $3,040 a year on a $400,000 home. Work yours out on the property tax calculator.

Withholding is an instalment, not the bill. What the year actually settles at is on the refund calculator, and the dates it settles on are the federal tax deadlines.

What this does not include

Indiana is flat at 2.95% for 2026, down from 3.05%, and scheduled to fall to 2.9% in 2027.
Every one of the 92 counties charges its own income tax on top, from about 0.5% to 3%, averaging 0.35% of AGI statewide. It follows the county you lived in on 1 January and is not included here.
