I want The Hon. Finance Minister to consider my suggestion on the above subject. Surcharge @10% of Income tax is levied when taxable income exceeds Rs. 50 lacs and upto 1 crore. Income tax for Rs.50 lacs works out to Rs. 1312500/-.
It is admirable that the erstwhile Finance Minister has brought down corporate taxes to 25% plus 4% cess in the First innings of the Government as promised.

In effect its cumulative effect demotivates the earning for private limited companies.
