Income Tax Exemption Slab Could be Raised Further: Finance Minister Arun Jaitley Informs

“I have no intention of burdening the salaried and middle classes by imposing heavy taxes on them. At the same time, I’m not going to let tax evaders get away. I’m going to bring them into the tax-payers circle,” Minister of Finance, Arun Jaitley said.
