what is indirect tax?

Answer Posted / rekha gusain

As everybody knows, tax may be direct or indirect. Direct
tax ix the tax, burden of which cannot be shifted to
others. e.g. income tax. In this the tax is paid by the
person who earns and nobody except him can pay his tax on
his behalf.

On the other hand there is indirect tax like sales tax.
In such type of tax the burden can be shifted to other
person.eg a manufacturer of printing paper pays sales tax
on sale of his product but later on he can receive the
amount of tax paid by the manufacturer from the buyer of
the goods.
