Abstract

This study delves into the tax structures of India and Bangladesh, focusing on key indicators like tax-to-GDP ratio, overall tax payments, time to comply, number of tax payments, and total tax rate. India's total tax rate, though decreasing, still surpasses Bangladesh's, requiring competitiveness for economic growth. Corporate tax reductions aim to attract investments, yet increasing the tax-to-GDP ratio remains a challenge compared to South Asian counterparts. India must balance revenue collection, fairness, and economic growth to improve tax efficiency and support business development for global competitiveness.
