Adi Godrej On Higher Taxes For the Rich


wealthymatters “I am strongly opposed to this idea. There is no point comparing tax rates in India with that of France or other parts of Europe where there is no growth. Tax rates in India are higher as compared to other emerging economies. The Direct Tax Code had proposed the highest tax rate should be 25%. We have all seen how low India’s growth rates were when tax rates were high.”-Adi Godrej

Kris Gopalakrishnan On Higher Taxes For The Rich
