Yes, all people in India pay taxes. But, ones who pay INCOME TAXES technically work 3-6 months for the Govt 🙏🙏 Thus, like it or not, they are special, even if the system doesn’t say so. And if we can’t provide the first world experience, the least that can be offered to these honest taxpayers is recognition of their EXTRA contributions as the sponsors of the Govt and Indian economy. Thus, had I been PM Modi and Nirmala Tai, I would have announced SPECIAL BENEFITS without any hit to the tax collections 🙏🙏 Here is a list of low/no cost efforts, which would make anyone rich with privileges! .. 1> No processing fees for passports, business and marriage registrations, driving licenses, and other government documentation 2> Priority queues & counters at Govt offices, ensuring faster processing times & reduced wait periods 3> Early access to Govt’s investment schemes & public sector bonds with slightly higher interest rates 4> Priority access to webinars, conferences, lectures & knowledge-sharing sessions by Govt experts 5> Invitations to Govt-hosted events like cultural festivals, art exhibitions or sports matches 6> Priority consideration for tax dispute resolution and faster processing of tax refunds 7> Priority services during elections, including shorter wait times at polling stations 8> Favourable interest rates on business, home & vehicle loans and FDs from PSBs 9> Annual awards and public recognition for the highest contributing taxpayers 10> Fast-tracked claims processing from Govt-owned insurance companies 11> Annual recognition awards for consistent and high-value taxpayers 12> Discounts on entry to national parks, museums, and heritage sites 13> Discounts on tolls through expressways and national highways 14> Preferential quota allocation in every PSU IPO or FPO issue 15> Priority passage gateways on metro rail networks .. And I know, some would say that this will divide India, create differences among people and more. -> Well, job reservations divided us. Different laws for different religions divided us -> Hindu/Muslim, Jat/Yadav, Bihari/Kannadiga, Brahmin/Shudra - That divided us India has already been divided by a thousand such moves over the years. One more won’t hurt 🙏🙏 But, it would go a long mile in acknowledging the special few who toil and send to the Govt whatever they earn anywhere between 3-6 months every single year. Plus, by turning the badge of a taxpayer into an honour and privilege, this will also boost the tax payer base. ..
