In the last year's Budget, Arun Jaitley disappointed this section. There are also possibilities that the long-term capital gain tax may come back, according to the report. Gains from shares sold after a year, known as LTCG, have been exempt from tax since 2005.
The government might also increase the income tax slab, which is at present 5% for Rs 2.5-5 lakh income bracket.
This class is eagerly looking for a booster package, as they suffered the most after the implementation of goods and services tax (GST) and note ban.
