At present women employees get a higher exemption limit of income-tax compared to their men counter parts. Is not it illogical? In India, the family burden is mainly borne by men folk. The majority of working women are just an added source of income to their families. (Their men also earns income at the same time) However, all the working men do not have employed wives and they are supposed to carry the weight of family, including that of his wife, all alone. So, what is the logic of this gender bias other than it is used as a plank for vote catching? FM should correct this gender bias. After all our Constitution is against all sorts of gender bias. Isn\'t it?

I fully agree with you. There should not be disparity of men and women where in Indian culture mens are taking more burden instead of women. Where husband and wife both are serving then tax should not be relaxed but only one member of the faimly is earning then tax should be relaxed more than that in comperision of both earner
