This document discusses various taxes in India including income tax, corporation tax, wealth tax, securities transaction tax (STT), and long-term capital gains tax (LTCG). It notes that India's tax-GDP ratio has remained constant even as the economy has grown. Income tax applies to individual and business incomes but has a narrow base and high rates that lead to evasion. Corporation tax rates have recently been reduced for smaller companies. Wealth tax was abolished in 2016. STT is paid on stock transactions while LTCG tax of 10% was introduced in 2018 on long-term capital gains over 1 lakh rupees.
