Tax is said to be mandatory because governments need the money to provide citizens with services.
Step-by-step explanation:
- Tax is said to be a mandatory portion of every citizen of India it is no matter whether he is earning or not because there is a separate tax for the suppliers and consumers too according to their annual income.
- Tax is collected because the government needs funds to run the government and to do services and welfare schemes to the people.
- For doing that there is a need for money so money is collected from the people in the term of tax and return it is distributed to the people in the way of schemes, subsidy and other projects for public welfare.
- Thus if anyone is not paying the tax it is considered a crime because it hampers the work of the government.
