    Respected Tax Guru,

    In my opinion, The Budget 2011-12 is not impressive and not in any manner called as “Good Budget” or “Bad Budget”, on the whole the Budget disappointed me. A Large sector has been left unfolded which is likely to be amending, but uff… alias; I would like to send some advice to The Union Minister of Finance of India regarding benefit to both the sectors i.e. Corporate, Non Corporate, Individuals and Country. I would like to highlight few Sectors which is needed to be amend –
    [1] Enhancement the Limit of any Loans [Received or Repayment]from individual in Cash u/s- 266 SS and 269 T of Income Tax Act -1961 FROM THE PRESENT LIMIT [Not exceeding] the Rs. 20,000.00 [ Rs. Twenty Thousand] up to Rs.1,50,000.00[Rs. One Lac Fifty Thousand]
    [2] Enhancement and Introduce the Limit of Rebate from Net Taxable Income of Partnership Firm, Corporate, Non Corporate, Individuals u/s- 80C up to Rs.1,50,000.00 [Rs. One Lac Fifty Thousand] this way, Five Times more Funds will be available to National Treasury of Tax Rebate/Payment.
    [3] Introduce the Taxable Liability @ 02.5% of Political Parties Funds.
    [4] Introduce the Taxable Liability @ 10.5% Flat Rate on Salary and other allowances of the Member of Parliaments and Member of Legislative Assembly of Both House.Only Exemptions should be given to Hon’ble President and Hon’ble Speaker of Lok Sabha.
    [4] Introduce the Taxable Liability @ 01.5% Flat Rate to the N.G.Os.
    Above matters are in my opinion will be fruit full regarding the meet of some deficit in Budget.
    Thanking You,
    Yours
    Ramesh Kumar Thakur
