2c5e7TAXATION LAW PDF
Course Objective:
Power to tax has been described as the power to destroy. This idea is being floated often whenever the State
introduces a new tax. Is this true? Is it not necessary that in order to raise revenue and place the economy on solid
foundation, the taxing power should be conferred on the State? The power to tax shall not go unregulated. In this
context of a federal structure the distribution of the taxing powers assumes added significance. Obviously, a study
of the Constitutional framework on taxation becomes important. Along with this, an analysis of the different laws
enacted in exercise of these powers with their safeguards and remedies sheds light on the mechanics of the taxation
by the Union and the States.
