process of levying and the manner of tax collection were unorganized. But it
suggests that all historical leaders and head countrymen collected taxes to run
its authority. In other words taxes on income, sale, purchase and properties
were collected to run the ruling Government machineries. Further, these taxes
were collected to meet their military and civil expenditure and also to meet the
common needs of the subjects like maintenance of roads, drainage system,
government buildings, administration of justice and other functions of the
region.

Although, there were no homogeneous tax rate structures but it depended on


the production capacity and commodity of that particular country and/or
region. These taxes were collected in cash or in kind and it entirely depended
on the type of commodity or service on which it was levied upon. The history
of taxation suggests these were done to store government buffer stocks to meet
emergencies. Taxes were levied on all classes of citizens. Taxes were paid in
the form of gold-coins, cattle, grains, raw-materials and even by rendering
personal service.

In India, the tradition of taxation has been in force from ancient times. There
was a perfect admixture of direct taxes with indirect taxes and they were varied
in nature. India's history of taxation suggests existence of a large and
composite taxable population. With the advent of the moguls in India the

 Regul ation of consumption and production: Taxes are sometimes used

to discourage the consumption and production of unnecessary or harmful goods


like liquor, tobacco etc. This also results in the diversion of production form
luxury goods to necessities.
 En couragin g domestic i ndustri es: Taxes in the form of custom duties

are used to reduce the import of certain goods that are domestically available
and thereby the domestic industries for the production of these goods. For
example, high customs duties on goods like TV, AC etc switch over the
demand for the foreign brands.
 Stim ul ating in vestments: The instrument of taxation can also be used in

the stimulating investment of the private sector. This can be done by providing
various tax-incentives in the form of tax-holidays, investment allowance and
lower profits.
 Reducin g i ncome i nequali ties: Taxation policy of the government is

often used in reducing the income inequalities of incomes and assets.


Inequality of income can be reduced by the system of progressive taxation
under which the rich people are required to pay much more taxes than poor.
The taxes collected from the rich can further be utilized for providing social
services which benefit the low income groups.

All

 Canons of equali ty: Canon of equality states that persons should be

allowed to pay their taxes as per their ability to pay. The burden of tax should
be fair and just. Equality of tax burden can be achieved if the rich people are
taxed more than the poor people not only in terms of tax but also in the terms
of tax rate. This canon tries to achieve the objectives of economic justice.
 Canon of cer tainty : The canon of certainty implies that the tax-payer

should be informed about every detail relating to the payment of each and
every kind of taxes.
 Canon of economy: Every tax has a system of cost of collection which is

the administrative cost of collection. The canon of economy should be such


that the cost of collection should be minimum . It will be useless to impose a
tax that involves huge expenditure in its collection.
 Canon of pr oductivity: All taxes should be productive. The canon of

productivity implies two things. In the first place, the tax system should be able
to generate enough revenue to meet the required expenditure. Secondly, taxes
should be imposed in such a way as not to obstruct and discourage production.
 Canon of elastici ty: The canon of elasticity implies that the taxes should

be levied that the yields of the taxes can be easily increased or decreased as per
the need of the government.

WHO IS LIABLE TO PAY INCOME TAX?

There are seven categories of persons chargeable to tax under the Act.
a) an individual
b) a Hindu undivided family
c) a company
d) a firm
e) an association of person or body of individuals ,whether incorporated or
not
f) a local authority
g) every artificial juridical person not falling within any of the preceding
categories.

Therefore any person not falling in the above mentioned categories, may still
fall in the four corners of the term “person” and accordingly may be liable to
tax under section 4.
The person by whom income tax or other sum of money is payable under the
