The budget should contain added provisions for getting benefits on House Rents or Home Loan payments as extra tax benefits. If such is allowed, this will give an added incentive to salaried citizens whose majority income is spent in rent / loan payments.

Most important to reduce/abolish SERVICE TAX.Service Tax is currently a burden on people of INDIA. The Government can improve its TAX collection on various items and go away with this tax. Uniform tax policy to be implemented for the benefit of citizens. Service Tax is encouraging consumer not to ask for bill and save money. Secondly, only consumer has to bear the load of this tax and no business is bearing its load.

Salaried employees be encouraged to invest upto 5 lakhs annually in any government aided scheme. This amount should be exempted from tax. The same should be set off against their tax liability due in 2018-19. If they don't have a job, the reimburse this amount in 2018-19. It may not carry any interest. This will enable accumulation of a corpus for specific use of GOI

#Union Budget - suggestions - contd. XVIII To encourage the usage of plastic money, interest charged on credit cards needs reduction. At present there are no norms and it ranges between 18 % to 40 % p.a. Further, adequate support be given to banks to upgrade their Information Technology Departments to make online transactions more secure. Popularisation of E-commerce will multiply all online transactions at a geometric pace, hence, the need Regards, Rajkaran Singh Bhatti 9780005656

* Raise the medical exemption limit from currently INR 15000 per/annum to 50000.00 per annum. * Raise the 80c limit from 2 lacs to 5 lacs. This can be done by merging section 24c (home loan interest exemption). People who does not have home loan feels sad because they dont want to buy house to save only the tax. * Please do arrange the unemployement allowance for those employee (private sector specially)who had paid huge income tax previously but now they dont have the job to survive.
