Duck the government

Alert: a rant post

Today I saw my payslip after a long time and WTH! I don't know what they'll take once bonus comes in. Paying this much for no water, bad air, corrupt babus and all those douche things.

As much as patriotic I am, this is just insane. On top of this add all the GST and sheet ton of other indirect taxes.

Living in India and paying like Europe. Wow!

This is per month or per year? I'm paying close to 6L per year. Even after all the deductions in old regime 🥲

Per month + some capital gains for topping

As soon as you cross 30L in base, old regime doesn't help until you do donation stuff.

My dude, this is precisely you're being screwed, "gormint" "needs" to give tax breaks to the "struggling businesses"

Earning around 50 lpa at 24 is already a great feat. Still if u want to look at the dark side, nobody can help. This rant is more common than diabetes. Yet people will stress about same thing and rant to destress. Endless cycle. Either do something about it or bring some new perspective. P.S. I am in alignment with ur rant but I’ve made peace with the state of affairs as I am not looking to move out of India and I cannot strong arm govt. individually to change this.

I know what you're saying is correct but can't help. I come from a very humble background where 10K was he'll of a deal so you know what 1L of tax means to me.

Hopefully I'll get better at handling it

Real humberbrag is you earn this much but pay 0 tax. Real OPs. I'm a peasant in front of them 🥲

Nah that's just planning. How many people do you think can even boast about paying income tax, let alone more than 1 lakh per month?

I don't have the number on top of my head right now, but I would say 90-95% people don't even earn 1 lakh per month.

Wait till you reach 1crpa, when you will pay extra 15% surcharge on top of existing 30%
