Tax revenue steadily increasing without tax rate hikes: Nirmala Sitharaman

Finance Minister Nirmala Sitharaman said that tax revenue has been steadily increasing in the last three to four years, even though tax rates have not been hiked. She attributed this to the efforts of the Central Board of Direct Taxation (CBDT) to control evasion and the use of technology to improve tax collection. This is good news for taxpayers, as it means that they are not being overburdened by taxes.
