When the final budget is announced.. I just wish 80C limit is enhanced .. and my income is exempt for the first 2 lakh rupees..
This govt should look beyond partisan political compulsions and commit to building more roads. It was bad enough that they spent crores removing Vajpayee’s photos from the NHAI boards, now the project itself seems to have come to a screeching halt.
I want more transparency, as to what govt does with taxpayers money.
If a Sahara can attract daily deposits of as low as Rs 5 from the poor rickshaw puller, wonder any of the insurance companies cannot come up with a Re 1 a day health insurance scheme thereby making quality health care affordable for the common man. 1 billion and more X 1 rupee a day = you do the math, go figure….
I wish there are some better rules for people like me to get tax refunds at the earliest! People still wait for months.. and years..
Does the Cong have it in them to use the state of the economy to announce measures that mind sound populist but still be good enough to trigger economic activity?
We should get Tax exemption for every bill we provide.
Right now in current system, we pay double tax. This should go.
For eg:
Tax1: Buy something for 100rs (this includes VAT+ service tax+ central excise+ ….+ some n number of Cess )
Tax2:
Again I have to pay tax for the same spent 100rs when I file returns.
Assuming this 100rs is in 30% tax slab, we will end paying
30rs + (VAT+ service tax+ central excise+ ….+ Cess )
I believe government should relax Rs. 15,000/- medical reimbursement for salaried employees further by increasing the amount to say Rs. 30,000/- and also extending this facility to senior citizens irrespective of source of income.. thanks.
