This is indeed true. I have been thinking along these lines of reinventing myself in the taxman's eyes as a "Consultant". There was a brief period in NDA rule where it was cool to be a salaried person as all the low interest rate loans were easily accessible. Now with the screwed up cabinet in the center, it pays to be smart than 'salaried'. Prabhu!

Maybe we can say change in place of inventions... i think its going to happen, far sooner than we think. ravi, http://www.servicetax.gov.in/overview/ovw_pt-6.htm read closely the section when the court says ""The service tax levied by reason of services which are offered. The imposition is on the person rendering the service. Of course, it may be indirect tax, it may be possible that the same is passed on to the customer but as far as the levy and assessment is concerned, it is the person rendering the service who alone can be regarded as an assessee and not the customer. This is the only way in which the provision can be read harmoniously. " Ennatha solla??? indian voter,

I have wondered at some of my friends who were well off in their business but paying lesser tax than me who was a salaried class. I am not very good in Economics but could not understand this taxation policy that prevails in India. I hope something happens soon. PK,

ST is supposed to be paid by the company for the charges they had levied on the customer but why do they charge the ST also to the customer. So wouldn't it translate to increasing the service charge itself (since that is what they are charging the customer anyway). Is this legal? and since its happening everywhere, is Govt. turning a blind eye to this practice? Maybe they are happy as long as they get money, no matter who pays it!! Yes, its unfortunate that Chidambaram keeps taxing the salaried class repeatedly. Tax is the backbone no doubt but its not fair to keep squeezing one class over and over again.

Tell me how the employment culture is in India that would allow people to work as consultants rather than employees. I know for sure that in western countries, many employers if not all are quite flexible on that count. Good post Prabu Karthik.
