  Service tax can be there but reduce the rate to 5% (max.) There is no justification to collect 12% of what you spent on a service to Govt which do nothing for the service you take. There is shortages everywhere! electricity, water, roads, railway seats, education opportunities etc. Where is all te money going? Why spent 1.75 lac crores on defense when there is no war for the last 4 decades?

  Govt is finding desperate ways to fund \"itself\" . Their own expenses have gone out of control - a fallout of the Sixth Pay commission recommendations - taxation and more taxation is the easy way out. In any case those in power whether politicians or beauraucrats are least effected by this taxation , they are anyways on a free ride .

  On your income Government collects 33% income tax, now service tax of 12.3 % professional tax by the state government, Take example of actors they earn, pay Income tax in crore are still subjected for service tax. No wonder the population remains poor and Government get richer.No control on Government Machinery public sectors and their perks Ministers Freebies and scams. I envy NRI they have taken wise decision to migrate from this stupid country which does not let honest ppl live in peace.

  Now India is one of the heavily taxed countries, thereby govt discourages honest tax payers and promoting black money. Is there anything left without tax?

  Is there anything left to be taxed????Ms Sonia Gandhi and FM and PM try to get the black money and clean the congress out of so many scams(Adarsh/2G/CWG/mining/army scandal).Congress party is more concentrated on appointing president rather than concentrating on the important issues of our country.This days i pray to god that pls CONGRESS OUT.....

  From public tax will be levied, but only 50% will be deposited by the service providers as it is happening for other taxes viz. Vat, sale tax, and existing service tax. Govt target of 1. 24 lac crore is too ambitious. Only organised sectors like banks, telco etc pay 100% of what is collected , but small hotliers, drycleaners, etc etc. Hardly deposit 100%. .
