DEFINITION- the amount of money you pay to the government according to how much you earn.

The Income-tax Act, 1961 is the charging Statute of Income Tax in India. It provides for levy, administration, collection and recovery of Income Tax. The Government of India brought a draft statute called the "Direct Taxes Code" intended to replace the Income Tax Act,1961 and the Wealth Tax Act, 1957. 


The Advantages of Taxes. Taxation is one of the essential functions of government, and a fact of life for taxpayers that requires compliance and planning. Income tax, property tax and sales tax all reduce how much money consumers have to save or spend.

Disadvantage

If the taxes are too heavy, they discourage saving-sand investment. In that case the country will suffer economically. A high level of taxation discourages investment and enterprise in the country. It inflicts a lot of damage, on business and industry.
