Controversies

Implementation of the unified Goods and Services Tax (GST) encountered compliance hurdles and legal challenges from states seeking exemptions. Ongoing debates center on broadening the tax base to include informal sectors and introducing a wealth tax to boost revenues without hampering growth.

Spending Efficiency

India scores low on transparency and government effectiveness rankings, with high levels of leakage in subsidy programs and underfunded health and education systems. Digitization of welfare transfers has improved targeting but overall efficiency remains constrained by bureaucratic complexity.
