TaxLaws:An Overview
Tax laws in India play a pivotal role in shaping the country’s economic landscape and government revenue generation. The taxation system in India is primarily governed by the Income Tax Act, 1961, and numerous other indirect tax laws.
There are mainly two types of income tax: direct tax and indirect tax.
Direct taxes in India include income tax, corporate tax, and capital gains tax. Income tax is levied on individuals and businesses based on their income, with different slabs and rates for various income levels. Corporate tax applies to companies on their profits, and capital gains tax is imposed on the profits earned from the sale of capital assets.
Indirect taxes, on the other hand, encompass goods and services tax (GST), customs duty, excise duty, and service tax. GST, introduced in 2017, replaced a complex system of indirect taxes and aimed at creating a unified market for goods and services across the country. Customs duty is levied on goods imported into India, while excise duty is imposed on the production or manufacturing of certain goods. Service tax applies to specified services
provided by service providers.
The taxation framework is overseen by the Central Board of Direct Taxes (CBDT) for direct taxes and the Central Board of Indirect Taxes and Customs (CBIC) for indirect taxes.
