How to increase Govt income without raising taxes
- Commercial Tax, Sales Tax, VAT
- C Form
- Paid INR 1,000
For services performed by Govt typically a small fee is levied. The person in charges usually takes 10 or 20 times that amount in bribe. As we are anyway paying the amount the Govt can reap huge income if they can curtail the bribe. Recently I had to collect about 7 C forms from the sales tax department. The cost of forms paid officially was only 15 rupees. However I had to pay a bribe of 1,000/- rupees for the same. So it roughly works 66 times the official amount.
