印度工商联合会在提交给政府的一份报告中表示:“降低个人税率带来的额外可支配收入或能促进消费,刺激对商品和服务的整体需求。”

Actually the govt needs to do away with personal income tax. This will definitely generate spending capacity of the working middle class.
实际上,印度政府应该取消个人所得税。此举能提高工薪阶层的消费能力。

As a middle class family we will welcome any reduction in tax rates. Even a saving of 5-10 thousand rupees is a big relief. I hope government listens to the middle class and give us some incentive in the form of tax rate reduction or in form of standard deduction. The economy will get a big boost with more spending power in hand of people.
作为一个中产阶级家庭,我们欢迎降低税率的举措。即使省下5000-10000卢比也是一大安慰。我希望政府能听取中产阶级的意见,降低税率,给予我们一些激励。更多的钱留在人们手中,经济将得到极大提振。

Government should abolish personal income tax and impose more tax on rice, chicken, mutton, beaf etc.
印度政府应该取消个人所得税,对大米、鸡肉、羊肉、牛肉等消费品加税。

Abolish the income tax as recommended by Dr. Swami. The Middle and working classes are the growth engines for any country. America has survived the worst recessions incl. the great depression of the 1930s thanks to its resurgent middle and working classes. Govt must leave the middle classes with more disposable income to boost the spending. No wonder Middle classes in USA and Canada are the richest and form the backbone of the economic growth.
取消所得税。中产阶级和工人阶级是印度经济的增长引擎。多亏了中产阶级和工人阶级,美国才走出了最严重的经济衰退(包括20世纪30年代的大萧条)。印度政府应该提高中产阶级的可支配收入,以刺激消费。美国和加拿大的中产阶级是最富有的,是经济增长的支柱。
