Discussion / Income tax question? How is th...
Last post by johnwalker1 - April 04, 2020, 07:55:24 PMAs you would all be aware that there would be many teachers, retired teachers and in some cases older students or home makers who would supplement income through tuition.
I just realized that many of them don't file IT for it.
In one such case, there was a home maker who used to give math tuition for 7-10 grade. There were 2 batches for each (weekend and weekdays): 1-1.5 hours (3 days or 2 days). Each batch had 4-6 students. The costs were from 500 to 1200 a month per student.
Thus if there were 5 students, 2 batches each, 4 grades (7,8,9,10) with a conservative average of 700 rupees a month:
This works out to 5*2*4*700 = 28,000 a month.
The overhead was nothing: old books, home as the center, white board and some regular ink supply.
If my understanding is correct, they would plug this in with the monthly financial requirements (groceries, transport, bills) the husbands salary is entirely saved and can be put for investment (in case of teachers, their school salary)
I've seen this being the case for so many years and so many times, it seems to be working like a well oiled machine with no one catching up or consequences!
How does this work out without the I-T department catching up on it? (i'm just curious as to how it works out)

Discussion / A reality check on tax rates
Last post by baiselmareo6 - March 28, 2020, 01:47:24 PMSo many people I know have a very poor understanding of marginal tax rates. They think that if you fall in the 20% bracket, ALL your income is taxed at 20%
Here is a reality check. In these calculations, I'm assuming that you have maximized 80c savings of 1.5L
If you make 12L/year, you would pay 1.32L as tax. Your effective tax rate is just ~11%
If you make 20L/year, you would pay 3.82L. Your effective tax rate is just 19.1%
If you make 40L/year, you would pay 10L. Your effective tax rate is just 25.1%
You would have to make 60L/year to get close to 30% tax rate
If you're making 60L per year, you're well off in most of the world (barring outliers like San Francisco) and fabulously well off in India. Does 30% tax rate really hurt you that much?
I'm personally within this tax range and I don't mind paying the money. It's a standard practice across the world for independent contractors like me to keep 30% of any money made aside for taxes.
Keep this in mind. The last majority of people would cap out under 20% tax rate
