A) DIRECT TAXES
It's the tax individuals & companies pay directly to the govt.
1) Corporation Tax
It's the tax companies pay (30% at present) on their profits.
2) Taxes On Income Other Than Corp Tax
It's income-tax paid by individuals or 'non-corporate assessees'. This ranges from 10% to 30%, depending on income.
3) Securities Transaction Tax (STT)
Applicable if you're dealing in shares or mutual fund units. It was introduced in the 2004-05 budget, replacing the tax on profits earned from the sale of shares held for more than a year (known as long-term capital gains tax).
4) Minimum Alternate Tax (MAT)
Indian companies pay 30% tax on profits as per the I-T Act. But tax holidays could lower the outgo. If a company's tax liability is less than 10% of its profits, it has to pay a MAT of 15% of book profits. This provision is expected to change once the direct taxes code (explained below) proposals are accepted. Under DTC, MAT will be levied on gross assets.
B) INDIRECT TAXES
It's essentially a tax on expenditure. Considered regressive, this tax does not distinguish between the rich and the poor and hence most governments prefer to raise their revenues through direct taxes.
1) Customs
Anything you bring from abroad comes at a price. By levying a tax on imports, the government achieves twin objectives: it raises revenues and protects local industries.
2) Union Excise Duty
Imposed on goods manufactured in the country.
3) Service Tax
You pay the government when you eat out or visit your hairdresser -- it is a tax on services rendered. Levied on 119 activities.
4) Value-Added Tax
State governments levy this on goods at the point of sale, based on the difference between the value of the output and the value of inputs used to produce it. The aim here is to tax a firm only for the value it adds to the inputs, and not the entire input cost. Thus, VAT helps avoid a cascading of taxes.
