One of the key priorities of the Government is to provide a non-adversarial and a responsive tax administration with the main objective of creating an environment conducive for achieving higher investments and growth. At the same time the focus is also on ensuring ease of doing business for the taxpayers. For individual taxpayers, Government endeavours to promote voluntary compliance by making compliance easy and reducing the cost of compliance for the taxpayers. These steps are aimed to ultimately result in buoyant revenue collections, reflecting higher growth, leading to higher standard of living and better quality of life for the citizens.

The Department of Revenue invites taxpayers and general public to provide innovative ideas and suggestions on tax policy and administrative issues with the objective of ease of doing business and reducing compliance cost for industries thereby facilitating buoyancy of revenue and increase in investment leading to higher growth.

Came to know about PAN camps. PAN is just a number. if we already have 90 crore plus aadhar numbers...why can't we just allot PAN to all of them. Just a thought. 2. Why not impose a minimal, say 0.1 % tax on agricultural income and get rid of black money disguised as agricultural income once and for all.

1. The income tax deptt must come out with a more user friendly software like used by a website " CLEAR TAX" for filing returns. 2. There must be an effective check on the fees charged by CAs and tax practitioners for filing returns. 3. Tax collection from businessmen be improved. There is big tax evasion by them as most of their transactions are in cash. 4. Ease of doing business should not be confused with facility for tax evasion.

last time high inflation and high taxes didn't went well with government across world in last 300 years. Marie Antoine Queen of France said like our politician that if people can't have bread they can have cake. she and her husband got their heads chopped by common man. be careful when you play with fire.

this won't help it may be good for headlines but tax evasion will increase. common man spends most of his earning on essential item and his earning comes after deduction of 30% tax and TDS. now you add 30% tax imposed by inflation due to stimulus package or monetary expansion because rich want their property to increase in value. so poor guy ends up paying 60% tax. I would be surprised if he won't evade taxes.

Taxation and retail inflation should be linked the more the inflation the lesser taxation as inflation is basically added tax to already existing tax. apart inflation figures should be honestly reported. During UPA time retail food inflation was 30% on monthly basis while reported inflation was 6% due to accounting chicanery and fishing figures with wrongful reporting by simply removing commodity from calculations.

I strongly agree with Sujit Lotlikar. My suggestion is for indirect taxes. Indirect modvatable taxes should be highest on basic raw materials. Then at each value addition the tax slab should be in such a way that tax evasion remains unattractive for each stage of value addition. Pl do not bring GST as it will create more problems. Instead increase transparency and efficiency by making Gov't. Officials accountable for entire system. Do not allow Gov't. Officials to harrass people.

my suggestion is burn or destroy 20% of money issues by value and volume. it will help in 2 ways one it will cripple inflation as inflation is due to excess money sloshing around so RBI will reduce rates on other hand it will cripple parallel black economy and old n hidden currency notes will be forced out in circulation. so hand over money issuing power to RBI and let it do monetary compression needed.
