Direct tax is the tax which is charged directly on the taxpayer. For e.g. property tax and income tax. In otherwords direct tax is that tax which is deducted fromone's salary.
Government levies on the income, property, or wealthof people or companies. A direct tax is borne entirelyby the entity that pays it, and cannot be passed on toanother entity.
Examples include corporation tax, income tax, andsocial security contributions. Unlike indirect taxes,
direct taxes are based on the ability to pay principle butthey sometimes work as a disincentive to work harderand earn more because that would mean paying moretax.

Government of India has proposed a new DirectTax code or Direct Taxes Code to replace the oldIndian Income Tax Act of 1961. This Direct Taxcode is an attempt to simplify the tax-life of an
individual. The way it works is that the income taxslabs are increased, however several deductions(e.g. deduction on housing loan) and tax-breaksare taken away. A detailed post will be written
about Direct Tax Code. Below you will find theproposed income tax slabs under the Direct Taxcode will be debated in the Parliament and ifapproved, will be implemented in 2011-2012.

According to the article 265 of the constitution of India notax of any nature can be levied or collected by thecentral or State Governments except by the authority oflaw.
The constitution of India vide entry no. 54 of the state list,gave power to the state legislature to levy sales tax onsale or purchase of goods other than newspapers,which takes place within the state. However, at that
time the parliament was not empowered to levy anytype of sales tax. Therefore, only state legislatureenacted state sales tax laws in their respective state forlevy of sales tax on sale or purchase of goods other
than newspapers. BC/JU

Although, the State Government was empoweredto levy and collect tax on sales made within itsown territory but there was no specific provisionsof levying tax on sale and purchase having
interstate composition. As a result, same goodscame to be taxed by several states on the groundthat one or more ingredient of sale was present intheir state. This led to multiple leving of tax. There-
fore central sales tax Act 1956 was enacted by theParliament and received the assent of the presidenton 21.12.1956. Imposition of tax became effectivefrom 01.07.1957.
