New to Tax

Hello all, so I'm a student still, I'll would be joining a company soon and I want to learn about what all tax systems we have and how do I manage them, I want to do them myself in future, where do I learn and what all should I be aware of to save as much as I can?

To start with, I come under 30% bracket, basic salary is about 50% of my base, HRA being 20%, PF 6% and Flexible 24%. I don't have any loans on my name and I'll have to live on rent. I'm also curious on which sections could I be saving and how.

Some of the beginner mistakes I hope I avoided. Taking LIC/ulip in the name of tax savings. Not entering stock market soon. Not getting NPS early. If corporate NPS even better you can save upto 10% of basic as taxfree.
