Frequently Asked Questions

Tax planning is important for the taxpayers as it helps in:

  • Reducing the tax burden on the taxpayers.
  • Channelising funds from taxable sources to different investment plans like investing funds in tax-saving FDs.
  • Saving funds that can be re-invested in the business and used for its growth, in case of corporates or assesses who own a business.

Form 16 and 16A are the certificates of deduction/collection of tax at source. These certificates show details of TDS/TCS for various transactions between the tax deductor and deductee.

Direct tax is levied on individuals or organizations and is paid directly to the government, while indirect tax is imposed on goods and services and is collected by intermediaries such as retailers.

Governments often provide exemptions, deductions, or tax credits for specific direct taxes. These exemptions and deductions vary on a case to case basis and may apply to certain income sources, investments. 

Since indirect taxes are included in the price of goods and services, they cannot be avoided by the end consumer. However, businesses can sometimes claim input tax credits or exemptions based on certain criteria set by the government.

Indirect taxes are usually calculated as a percentage of the price of a product or service. The specific tax rate depends on the type of goods or services being taxed and the applicable tax regulations in a particular jurisdiction.

Direct taxes, such as income tax, are calculated based on the taxpayer’s income or profits. Tax rates may vary depending on income brackets or the nature of the income (e.g., capital gains). Governments typically provide tax brackets and tax rate schedules to determine the amount owed.

These entities are obligated to pay tax on their income at rates specified under the Income Tax Act, subject to amendments in rates and related provisions over time.

Income tax refers to the tax paid by individuals on their income, while corporate tax is the tax levied on the profits earned by corporate entities.
