Ketan Madia, VP-Tax at GE India says, “I would expect no changes in the Direct Tax rate, partial rollback on the economic stimulus and some kind of a roadmap on goods and services tax (GST) and Direct Tax Code.”
Sudhir Kapadia, Partner of E&Y says, “What I expect is a reduction of corporate tax rate to 30% and recalibration of indirect tax rate to the pre-stimulus level.”
Rohan Shah, Managing Partner of ELP says, “Expect that there will be rollback of stimulus and some affirmative action not very large but some affirmative action in relation both to GST and the DTC.”
