Indians are the biggest tax evaders
by Natesh on May 04, 2007 07:23 PM  Permalink 

Dear rediff readers, i also belong to the salaried class and pay huge taxes and see nothing in return from the govt. We should also take into account the huge black economy generated in India. Infact more than 50% of our economy is considered black economy and we justify it by saying the politicians are corrupt so why should be pay taxes. I think thats a very negative attitude for and we can never move forward. Some readers suggested pension plan but vast majority of our tax money is spent on giving away to retired govt offcials as pension. Our politicians give away too many freebies to the commoners which is a complete waste of tax money. The business class has always been evading tax for over 50 yrs now. Politicians and corruption have been inseperable and also govt officials. I think there should be a law for every politician and all their coterie to declare their assets after/before coming to power. The public should have access to all their financial assets through papers and internet. Government and the concerned department should be held accountable for any infrastructure related activity. I would recommend privatization of most public sectors to make it more transparent. Our tax money should be spent wisely to give us basic medical and infrastructural facilities. But its not good to evade tax as the right solution. I request our citizens(working and the business class) to pay the due taxes. Lets not have black money and remove it from the system

Our Honest Politicians ...
by maneet nagi on May 04, 2007 07:20 PM  Permalink 

Politicians are already drinking blood of common people & now they want flesh too ...

Even if all Indian starts paying tax honestly, the maximum will go into the pockets & swiss accounts of politicians as is happening now ....

So politicians better try to improve our reputation, image in front of people instead of wasting time in useless policies .... ha ha

Where are we headed with such wisdom....
by neeraj tanwar on May 04, 2007 07:10 PM  Permalink 

It seems to me that Mr.Chidamabaram's has not satiated his appetite with the burden he has put on the common man with his budget. Now he wants to hang a domocles sword on his head too. I wonder what thirst he wants to quench with that. WOULD IT NOT BE PRUDENT FOR HIM TO PERSUE IDEAS TO BRING LARGER POPULACE (WHO STILL DONT PAY TAX) UNDER THE TAX UMBRAGE INSTEAD OF CHASING HAPLESS PEOPLE WHO ARE ALREADY PAYING THEIR DUES. Maybe he has run short of ideas on that front so he now wants to whip the beaten horse.I dont know what Mr.Singh is doing by allowing this guy to have a free run like this.. All i can say is that if this is the beginning than where is it all going to end....maybe he will take our pants too........

Where Tax is Used?
by Sanjeev Kumar on May 04, 2007 06:57 PM  Permalink 

The Hard Earned Money of Salaried Class in the form of Tax is also used to:
1. Provide meals and security of hundreds of Afzals
2. Z Plus, Z and Y Securities to corrupt politicians and musclemen.
3. Securities to homes and families of wealthy and selfish cricketers
4. Z Plus Security and Accomodation to Priyanka Vadra and her family who does'nt deserve any thing but getting simply because she is from Gandhi Family
5. and finally to make the corrupt people rich.

No Facilities---We Will Pay No Tax
by useurhead on May 04, 2007 06:50 PM  Permalink 

If the people are paying tax the govt should look after their needs as it is the peoples own Money, how can the govt decide to take tax and not give proper medical facilities, pension schemes to the retired, no proper infrastructure, where is all the Money being spent, after paying taxes we should get all these facilities free, or else we should no more pay taxes, let the FM do what he wants, we should form an organisation NO Facilities No Paying Tax, Give facilities and take tax, and I think it is high time we demand for facilities like Foriegn countries get benefits when they pax tax
