Tax avoidance is the legal utilization of the tax regime to one's own advantage, in order to reduce the amount of tax that is pa yable by means that are within the law. By contrast tax evasion is the general term for efforts to not pay taxes by illegal means. The term tax mitigation is a synonym for tax avoidance. Its original use was by b y tax advisors as an alternative to the pejorative p ejorative term of tax avoidance. Latterly the term has also a lso been used in the tax regulations of some jurisdictions to distinguish tax avoidance foreseen by the lawmakers from tax avoidance which exploits loopholes in the law. law. Based on these concepts arises the pillars of Tax Protesters as well as Tax Resistance:

Some of those attempting not to pay pa y tax believe that they have uncovered unco vered interpretations of the law that show that they are not subject to being taxed: these individuals and groups are sometimes called tax protesters. An unsuccessful tax protestor has been attempting openly to evade tax, while a successful one avoids tax. Tax resistance is the declared refusal to pay a tax for conscientious reasons (because the resister does not want to support the government or some of its activities). Tax resistors typically typically do not take the position that the tax laws are themselves illegal or do not apply to them (as tax protesters do) and they are more concerned co ncerned with not paying for particular government policies that they oppose. Responses to tax avoidance:

Act-322 {MBR}

Direct Taxes In Bangladesh Avoidance also reduces government revenue and brings the tax system into disrepute, so governments need to prevent tax avoidance or keep it within limits. The obvious way to do this is to frame tax rules so that there is no scope for avoidance. In practice, this has not proved achievable and has led to an ongoing battle between governments amending legislation and tax advisors' finding new scope for tax avoidance in the amended rules.

Tax evasion:

By contrast, tax evasion is the general term for efforts by individuals, firms, trusts and other entities to evade taxes by illegal means. Tax evasion usually entails taxpa yers deliberately misrepresenting or concealing the true state of their affairs to the tax a uthorities to reduce their tax liability, liability, and includes, in particular, dishonest tax reporting (such as declaring less income, profits or gains than actually earned; or overstating deductions). Illegal income and tax evasion:

Who earn income by illegal means (gambling, theft, drug trafficking etc.) is required to report unlawful gains as income when filing annual annu al tax returns. Suspected lawbreakers have therefore been charged with tax evasion when there is insufficient evidence to try them for their non-tax related crimes. Other times tax evasion can be used as a "one more nail in the coffin" by prosecutors by stating that if a person earns illegal income, s/he may also be guilty of tax evasion. Those who attempt to report illegal income as coming from a legitimate source could be charged with money laundering. Evasion of Value Added Tax (VAT):

During the latter half of the twentieth century, Value Added Tax (VAT) has emerged as a modern form of consumption tax through the world. Producers who collect VA VAT from the consumers may evade tax by under-reporting the amount of sales. Control of evasion:

Level of evasion depends on a number of factors one of them being fiscal equation. People's tendency to evade income tax declines when the return for due payment of taxes is not obvious. Evasion also depends on the efficiency of the tax administration. Corruption by the tax officials Act-322 {MBR}

Direct Taxes In Bangladesh often render control of o f evasion difficult. Tax Tax administrations resort to various means for plugging in scope of evasion and increasing the level of enforcement.

Public opinion on tax avoidance:

Tax avoidance may be considered to be the dodging of one's duties to society, society, or alternatively the right of every citizen to structure one's affairs in a manner allowed by law, law, to pay no more tax than what is required. Attitudes vary from ap proval through neutrality to outright hostility. hostility. Attitudes may vary depending on the steps taken in the avoidance scheme, or the perceived unfairness of the tax being avoided. Corruption by tax officials:

Corrupt tax officials cooperate with the tax payers who intend to evade taxes. When they detect an instance of evasion, they refrain from reporting in return for illegal gratification or bribe. Corruption by tax officials is a serious problem for the tax administration in a hug e number of underdeveloped countries. The distinction in various jurisdictions of Tax Evasion and Tax Avoidance:

The use of the terms tax avoidance and tax evasion can vary depending on the jurisdiction. In general, the term "evasion" applies to illegal actions and "avoidance" to actions within the law. The term "mitigation" is also used in some jurisdictions to further distinguish actions within the original purpose of the relevant provision from those ac tions that are within the letter of the law, but do not achieve its purpose.

Most countries impose taxes on income earned or gains realized within that country regardless of the country of residence of the person pe rson or firm. Most countries have entered into bilateral double taxation treaties with many other countries to avoid taxing nonresidents twice -- once where the income is earned and again in the country of residence (and perhaps, for Bangladeshi citizens, taxed yet again in the country c ountry of citizenship) -- however, there are relatively few double-taxation treaties with countries regarded as tax havens. To avoid tax, it is usually not enough to simply move one's assets to a tax haven. One must also personally move to a tax haven (and, for Bangladesh nationals, renounce one's citizenship) to avoid tax. Double taxation on the professional is accumulated to VA VAT and Income Inco me tax. Act-322 {MBR}

Income Tax: to be the symbol of social status:

In the Budget Speech, the Finance Adviser Adviser declared that CG will make the Income Tax Tax the symbol of social status. It is felt that the rich are paying proportionally less income tax to the state than common people as he can easily satisfy the office. Compare the stress felt by a richer man to pay Tk. 10000 to the office than paying Tk. 5000 by a middle inco me man. But consider the loss that is incurred by the state. So richer people can able to dodge larger amount of money mone y by paying extra cashes to the office. Among the taxpayers, it is not taken as credit –who is paying how much. It is rather oppositewho has dodged how much is taken as credit. Our Governments over the years failed to create a society where higher tax payers are acknowledged and acclaimed. What benefit Government is giving to the tax payers. Except the label of CIP, CIP, I personally know nothing. The ordinary citizen has some suggestions: Act-322 {MBR}

Direct Taxes In Bangladesh 1. Government Government can consider extending extending the financial financial benefits benefits on the basis basis of Income Income taxes given by the individuals-such as fixing the amount of loan by the banks and financial institutions on the amount of taxes, etc.

2. Let the tax of the individuals individuals be be disclosed disclosed or publicly known. So that culture culture develop develop to compare the taxes, not the income or the wealth, 3. Clean the Income Tax office office from corruption corruption so that people people of the departm department ent do not consider it as a department to make illegal money ; Few days back I met an Engineer who passed from BUET and now working as a Deputy Commissioner of Taxes; but why on Earth a BUET Engineer would choose the Income Tax as his career department! 4. Simplify the systems systems of payment payment of of income tax so that a tax tax payer payer does not the need need the help of a middle man ( income tax layer or office man ) to prepare his return

5. Gradually Gradually electronic electronic payment payment system system may may be introduc introduced ed where where the tax tax payer will pay his taxes through internet which is now followed in developed countries 6. Slim down down the Income Income Tax Tax Department, Department, make make it more automated. automated. The unnecess unnecessary ary staffs has created a negative image of the department than doing any good 7. In assessment assessment of of the profession professional al income, income, the help help of the professional professional bodies bodies can be taken. It will be more accurate and rational than the so called of the so called Inspectors, who thrive on their twisted assessment; etc.
