Seems like since last year the focus of government has shifted from actually making beneficial policies to enable innovation and growth of India to just collecting taxes blindly.
They just want to harvest tax in as many ways possible and kill the middle class person.
First it was crypto.
Then us salaried individuals started receiving notices.
Then they levied 28% GST on online gaming.
Now they are also checking proofs for HRA allowance and other stupid stuff which wasn't done before.
I was wondering why there is a sudden increase in such incidents? Is the government hiding something? Are they running out of money?
Or are they just smoking weed just like us and making stupid rules?
I am thinking of making an app where you can enter your purchase and it will tell you how much tax you have paid direct or indirect. Atleast we should be aware how much govt is looting us.
They are doing this coz the tax payers don't have the spine to oppose. They will soon ask to pay taxes on many shitty things and still you and I can't do anything about it, cuz we are made to believe that it's good for the country. It's already almost the same taxes as the Britishers were taxing on us I think, remember we fought Britishers for the very reason that they were imposing a lot of taxes and looting us.
The government is doing the same now with the tax payers, and yeah no one will ask anything coz you are the NPC for the government.
I have decided that I will not vote for BJP and ask all my close aides to do the same. Enough of these shitty taxes.
BJP down down
I think you have lost the bigger picture. When congress was in power, you had to pretty much stand in a queue to get a cylinder. These guys made it openly possible to get a cylinder.
You are given an opportunity here in India to study and earn. In return, its expected that you pay taxes. A lot of these taxes goes toward building infrastructure and social subsidy.
Here in Gurgaon, MCG charges 60rs for waste collection every month. Just 60Rs. A simple Swiggy order costs almost 4 times as much. Do you think 60rs by itself makes up the unit economics ?
I think it's kind of an elitist crybaby shit that you pay so much tax. For once we are actually seeing the results of taxes being paid. You are seeing a revamped railways ( not talking about Vande Bharat, but about other stuff as well, like capacity addition, timeliness, cleanliness, etc ), so much better roads. Power cuts though still an occasional part of life are getting lowered in rural areas.
I would rather see the result of my taxes in front of my eyes than in the hands of cronies banding together with an unfortunate acronym of "INDIA".
Gobhi hi 25 ghante kaam karte hai , Chhota Fanta 36 ghante karega aur kya chhahiye
This government’s primary intention is to collect more and more taxes in whatever mean’s possible. They don’t give a f**k about anything. And then will brag every month/quarter about record GST collection! This government is pathetic to say the least! No accountability and arrogance is at its peak. We have come to a point where we can’t even question the government otherwise you will be termed as anti national.
What do you mean checking HRA proofs? This was always required to be given to your company.
People have received notices for claiming false HRA.
I've never heard of this happening before.
Ya, people who were doing right by the govt. should be stupid
Inspite of so many "better than earlier govts" reforms in the last 10 years...the govt hasnt done much needed reforms in the income tax regime.
The govt is doing a few good things like dissolving inept psu's, selling off entities like A...
