To encourage JAN BHAGIDARI and to make the procedure of budget formation transparent, the Union Ministry of Finance has decided to invite suggestions for Union Budget 2017-18. As you may recall, this has been a regular feature on MyGov for the last two years.

Citizen from all walks of life are welcome to be a part of the budget making process. You can submit your suggestions either directly in the comments box or attach a PDF document.

Last year we had an overwhelming response with over 40,000+ suggestions for Union/ Railway budget. Several of the suggestions received on MyGov were incorporated in the last year’s budget. To know more about these, click here.

We seek your valuable ideas to continue the tradition of the Union Budget incorporating the citizens’ aspirations. The last date for submissions on this forum is 20th January, 2017.

i was reading some where in newspaper that servicetax will be imposed on astrologers , katha vachaks, and those earning more than 10 lakhs would be covered under this , but what i feel is why 10 lakhs , my suggestion is if this news is true than it should be around 5 lakhs or even lower than this , astrologers , kathavachaks are earning lakhs and lakhs and they should come under service tax and check must be on deras also they have huge properties and major source of money laundering

#Budget2017 Interest income earned from savings and term deposit accounts should not be taxed. This would encourage people to keep their savings in banking systems and would avoid a lot of work for housewives, senior citizens and Income Tax departments where housewives and senior citizens file return only to get their TDS refunded.

UNION BUDGET 2017-18:- Last 69 years budgeting system may be shifted TO PERFORMANCE BUDGETING SYSTEM. Get the last 5 years funds utlization performance of each Sector and based on that average performance funds shall be allotted to each Sector in BUDGET. Non performance sectors should be deleted. Below 80% utlization should be ignored. This will help the well performed sectors to get more funds allocation in each year budget. A COMPETITIVE APPROACH IS ALWAYS SUPPORT DEVELOPMENT.

1. There shall be no direct tax but income tax returns filing shall be made mandatory for all, whoever has any amount of income. 2. There shall be no transaction charges/service tax on debit card or internet banking. 3. Due to saving in income tax via housing loan, real estate prices has increased. kindly remove this or give tax payer another option to save the income tax. Or all the personal loans also put under this category (saving income tax scheme). Thankyou and Jaihind
