Don’t we disagree when some eminent Indians talk about taxing super-rich? Finance Minister P Chidambaram has said that there should be a debate on the idea. Since, the minimum threshold for being classified as the “super-rich guy” is not known yet, I assume that most of the country’s few poster boys running million-dollar turnovers (self-made or inherited) would easily fit into the class. But is it really going to help the rest or the economy? Don’t we know that, for some, paying taxes is expensive and worth avoiding? So, should we go-ahead to see more under-invoicing, evasion, round tripping of funds at a time when growth is much-less than quiet enough and affordability to lose more funds to tax havens is just poor. Then, is it the right way (at the right time) to rein in deficit? Of course, some argue that it is going to push us towards equity and inclusive growth. But, logic seems to be lost when Indian middle class is still far behind the rich—at least by USD 1,700 in per capita—and so that contradicts the idea of raising enough funds to make a difference. By the way, Warren Buffet says that “Risk comes from not knowing what you are doing”. What do you say?
