Increase the tax exemption limit drastically
by caruthedath gopalakrishnan on Feb 09, 2010 01:52 PM  Permalink 

It's disheartening to see that the governments both at the Centre and the States have failed miserably in controlling prices of commodities of mass consumption. Life has become very difficult what with sugar being sold at Rs.50/- a kg. and other commodities beyond the means of an average wage earner. There is also not a silver lining in the horizon for any dramatic change. Crude prices are going up, the petroleum ministry has already sounded on major increases in the prices of petrol, diesel, kerosene and LPG.

Therefore, the only relief which the Govt. can give is by way of increasing the tax exemption limit to say Rs.5 lac and for the senior citizens to Rs.6 lac. The senior citizens have to pay through their nose for medical expenses like hospitalisation. Mediclaim policies, it appears, are meant for youngsters. For the senior citizens, the rate premium is too high which dissuades them from getting a mediclaim policy.

Will the Finance Minister at least act ?

Bring some tax respite to salaried people of middle class.
by anil jha on Feb 09, 2010 01:49 PM  Permalink 

The salaried middle class has been passing through a torrid time for a pretty long time, finding it difficult to make both ends meet. They badly require substantial tax relief. But it is quite difficult for them to get the same as they have just nobody to look forward to. This is the most oppressed and neglected sector. Will the FM have a galance on these petty creatures, whose case people hardly find worth taking up?

Dear FM,
The tax should be levived to all the people and all business class should be scrutinized well so that government can colleact more tax and the salaried persons tax can be shared among those who simply skips the Tax.You should come up with some plans like life time medical benifit and other such benifits to encourage tax return files.
