Tax policy in India
In: The Asian journal of public administration, Band 24, Heft 1, S. 111-138
Abstract
The tax reform of recent years in India are based on Chelliah's recommendations of simple broad-based taxes with a moderate and limited number of rates. The reduction in direct tax rates in the economy has not only increased revenue collection but also accelerated economic growth. This article aims to investigate the effect of India's tax policy on private capital formation. A time series analysis of data for the economy for the period 1950-51 to 1994-95 reveals that a one percent increase in the direct tax ratio has led to a reduction of 0.12 percent in the ratio of private capital formation to GDP.
