Exclusive: FM Nirmala Sitharaman Replies To Tough Questions On Why She Raised Tax

#BTBudgetRoundTable2024 #nirmalasitharaman #middleclassfamily #tax
At the #BudgetRoundTable2024 conference, Rahul Kanwal, Executive Director, Business Today; Sourav Majumdar, Editor, Business Today and Siddharth Zarabi, Managing Editor, BTTV engaged in an insightful conversation with Finance Minister Nirmala Sitharaman. The discussion focused on the recent tax hikes on various asset classes, including stocks, futures and options (F&Os), and the indexation of real estate. FM Sitharaman explained that the tax increases are minimal and aimed at rationalizing the tax system across different asset classes. She emphasized that measures such as indexation in the real estate sector were taken to ensure fair treatment across asset classes. FM Sitharaman assured that tax simplification remains a priority despite new changes, highlighting the GST's role in streamlining the tax structure nationwide. She clarified the hikes from 10% to 12.5% on stocks are not intended to boost government revenue but to achieve a more balanced tax framework. The government's aim is to maintain stability while simplifying taxes for broader economic equity.

[@arahul4045]

The new budget is actually great for the middle class. They have increased the income tax slabs by a lot. First of all, I hope you know that you are paying 15% tax for only dor the income which is between 10-12 lakhs, which is at most 2 lakhs for this slab. So 15% of 2 lakhs, which is roughly ₹30k 10% income tax for your income which is better 7 lakh and 10 lakh. Which is 3 lakhs. 10% of 3 lakhs is another 30K. 5% tax on your income which is between 3 and 7 lakhs (7-3 lakh, is 4 lakhs) 5% of 4 lakhs is 20K. For your rest of the income which is below 3 lakhs you don't need to pay any taxes. Mind you this is without applying standard deduction of 1.25 lakhs. If you apply that than you might even skip a whole income tax slab. So at most the income tax that you'll pay if you are earning between 10 lakhs and 12 lakhs is 80K, and this is assuming you don't apply a standard deduction of 1.25 lakhs to your income. You are actually paying very less income tax compared to previous years, and certainly not 15% of your income as income tax. I have seen many people online here who don't even understand the concept of income tax slab and fall prey to all the media propaganda bullshit. I sincerely hope you are not one of them. If you are actually earning more than 12 lakhs, then you are not even a middle class person. It's considered as a legit lower end of High class in India. In which case, you will be taxed higher (but not too much). The 30% income tax is only for the slab of income which is higher than 20 lakhs. Say you earn 22 lakhs, then you will only be paying 30% income tax on the income which is higher than 20 lakhs (which is 2 lakhs, 22 lakhs -20 lakhs).

They have actually reduced taxes for the middle class by increasing the tax slabs. Do your own research and think before falling for the propaganda and media narrative.

So that's not at all a good idea. In fact I would say it should be further decreased.

Being a “So called middle class” i pay 50Lakhs tax per year where I didn’t even study and develop my skills from a govt run educational institution. But I do care of the country’s development which is why I am a dedicated tax payer over years. But this system of simplification totally removed options like 80c, home loan exemption etc of saving taxes. Talk about simplification, then take 30% from my salary and that should be it right? why are you taking taxes from the remaining money I have saved in forms of gst, tax on loans, tax on bank interests etc? That I have earned some money utilising my own skills and my hard work and that I am spending that money to buy some happiness for me and my family like a car or a house or any electrical appliances my mistake? why should I or anyone for that matter give shares from those expenses as well?

[@shajicpc]

I’m working in private sector. Paying 30% of my income to government. I have no pension when I retire. Using my money government is providing home to homeless. But, when I want to take a loan, they could have exempted me from paying tax until I clear my loan. This lady doesn’t understand the issues of middle-class. She claims to be from middle class.

​​​@@jayakishore565Really 😢😢. Under the old tax regime accounting for various exemptions and deductions availed in entirety, you will not be liable to pay tax even while earning Rs. 10,00,000/- per annum. While under the New tax regime without any exemptions, there was a tax break provided at Rs 7,50,000/- which has now been enhanced to a paltry Rs. 7,75,000/-. The old tax regime accounted for HRA which constitute 20-25% of your salary, while the new tax regime even disallows that and compute gross salary in its entirety. So where do you think your Modi Govt offered any tax concession in the first place?? LoL 😂😂😂😂 Even savings bank interest and interest on refunds are not being spared by this stingy Govt. The income tax exemption limit under the old tax regime was Rs 2,50,000/- in 2014. This has stagnated for the past 10 years even without taking into account run away general inflation and wage inflation. So what are you really talking about?? What is more disconcerting is that a committee has been constituted to review the old tax regime and it would be disbanded permanently consequently resulting in more tax liabilities and disincentivising savings completely.

Why does a person with 15L income taking care of his family need to pay 30% tax and a person with 1cr agricultural income pay no tax ? Why with purchasing power of rupee decreasing by almost 50% in 10 years (basic commodities costs double within 10 years),the tax brackets are not adjusted accordingly? Why punish the hardworkers who invested their life trying to skill up , earn for their family and want to make an honest living ?

Finance Minister thinks that she just made small changes this time. She won't even realize that over the last 10 years, BJP is killing middle class slowly. They are putting taxes on all the ways which allows middle class to save a bit for his family. Here are a few actions from Modi Govt. Reduced benefit for interest on Housing loan, Life Insurance is taxable now, Dividend earned in taxable by payee earlier companies have to bear it, second house is luxury now, reduced corporate taxes and added more to middle class for compensation, above all interest received from Income Tax dept is now part of your income. Height of blood sucking. It's only a small part of a huge list.

This is not a good government at all. This lady is not a visionary. All thoughts are poor and bad decision for budget. No relief for middle class.

This is a message to our honorable finance minister: the so called middle class have given you the right to seat there and spout this nonsense so it is my humble request that don't try to provoke us and also i bow my head to all the influencers and celebrity and social workers and youth leaders who are casual sitting in their house and watching this .

Extremely disappointing. Leave my salary with me, so that when I go for my child's higher education, I don't have to go for loan and pay interest, when I wish to build a small house for myself, I can do it without borrowed money from bank and paying huge emis. What a vicious circle? The middle class has been reduced to the status of beggars, work hard like donkeys, earn a little and pay taxes, buy a little and pay taxes, save a little and pay taxes. And then for bigger expenses, borrow money from banks and pay emis. Very sorry state of affairs, a semi totalitarian state
