    INCOME TAX::–IN THE INDIAN HOUSEHOLDS, IT IS MORE LIKELY THAT IF INDIAN HUSBAND  IS EARNING  AND WIFE IS  NOT EARNING  BUT NEVER   BE VICE-VERSA ..  .THAT  MEANS,  IT IS  SURE THAT  IF A WIFE IN A FAMILY IS EARNING,  HUSBAND IS ALSO EARNING. … THE CURRENT SYSTEM OF GIVING CONCESSION TO WOMEN TAX PAYERS MEANS  GIVING CONCESSIONS TO A FAMILY WHERE BOTH HUSBAND AND WIFE ARE EARNERS,  AND AGAINST HE  FAMILY WHERE HUSBAND IS THE SOLE EARNER. .. THIS DISPARITY  SHOULD GO AND TAX-PAYING SLABS SHOULD BE EQUAL FOR BOTH MEN AND WOMEN. 

  2. Adv R.L.Garg says:

    I would like to submit the following suggestions for consideration

    Income tax from Senior Citizens should be recovered in tern of percentage of Tax calculated as Ordinary Citizen without considering the higher limit of Sr Citizens

    After calculating Tax rebate on total tax calculated be given in terms of %age of the tax so calculated e.g.

    100% rebate to the individuals at the age 90 Yrs and above
    80 % between the age of 80 to 90 years
    60 % rebate between 70 to 80 years
    40 % rebate between 60 to 70 years
    20 % rebate between the age 50 to 60 years but after retirement from the active service and adopted / accepted in Consultation or advisory position

    10 % rebate to all women below 50 years

    Second point for consideration is reduce the age of Very Senior Citizen to 75 years instead of 80 years and create another position of as RESPECTED ELDERLY SENIOR CITIZEN attracting no tax
    \
    These concessions may result into security to Sr Citizens because their children will like to deposit etc in the neme of their old aged parents to get the relief and will care for them which is lacking in some cases these days

    Thanks
