Division of powers
1. The Constitution demarcates the powers of the Central and State governments into different lists of subjects, namely, Union list, State list and Concurrent list
2. Most federations that are formed by holding together do not give equal powers to its constituent units. Thus, all states in the Indian Union do not have identical powers. For instance, some states enjoy a special status. Jammu and Kashmir has its own Constitution. Many provisions of the Indian Constitution are not applicable to this State without the permission of State Assembly
3. A clear mention regarding the financial powers of the Centre and States has been made in the Indian constitution. Income tax, excise duty, corporation tax, etc are levied and collected by the Central government whereas land revenue, stamp duty etc come under State government
