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.

What is price deflator?

What is price deflator? A defaltor is used to restate data measured over time to prices prevailing at a particular period or time to make it comparable. Essentially, a deflator removes the effect of inflation from the data. What is the role of price deflator in GDP calculations? Prices are continuously in a state of flux, but generally trend upwards over time. Therefore, even without an increase in the quantity of goods and services produced by an economy, price increase can give the impression of an increase in the gross domestic product, or GDP, the benchmark indicator of economic activity. Therefore, the impact of prices has to be removed at arrive at a true measure of the value of goods and services produced, or real economic growth.

How Tax Deducted at Source (TDS) works?

    THE tax season is here. And if you are an employee you can't blame your employer for deducting large chunks of money from your salary towards tax deducted at source ( TDS ), which he is legally obliged to do. Your bank will also deduct some percentage from your FD interest of Rs 10,000 or more towards TDS! So what is this TDS all about? How is it computed? Are there any changes this year? Read on... What is TDS? TDS reduces your taxable income and could even provide tax relief! The TDS collections account for 40 percent of the total taxes collected in the country. As the name suggests TDS is the amount of tax that is deducted at source in certain types of income . The TDS thus collected is deposited in the Government treasury within a specified time.
