        Most countries also have these taxes as well as income tax. I believe the question was was is the percentage of the population paying income tax so low?

    What Uttar Pradesh lacks in tax rate, it makes up with number of tax payers.

    I’m a little ignorant here so happy to be educated, but are the higher tax paying areas also the ones with the biggest religious minorities? Does the federal or state authority set the tax rate? I find the history/culture/ethnic make-up of India fascinating, very keen to visit one day.
