Most pathetic ministry / directorate
even till today we do not have a proper tourism taxation policy, countries in south east asia review tax on tourism entities after 3 years unlike here in India it's revised each year, although large promises are made about T for Tourism, nothing has materialized.
First ovt. charges the Hotel with Service Tax Separately, a Transporter Separately, Airline Separately and when the Tour Operator packages it together again the service tax levied on top of them, i.e. Tax kay upar Tax.
We are not at all a Tourist Friendly Country, Visa Upon Arrival helps only the Back-Packers and not the real spenders.
Bus, Service Tax, VAT, Luxury Tax, Sales Tax: T for Tourism naheen T for Taxed Tourism, result mein milegaa Baba Ji Kaa thullu
