Roll back 20% levy on credit cards: Experts
Experts and taxpayers sharply criticised the government's decision from earlier this week to bring credit card transactions in a foreign currency under what is known as the liberalised remittance scheme (LRS), which will now involve a 20% levy as tax collected at source (TCS) for most such payments, as a move that will hit people's foreign travel budgets, constrain cash flows, and possibly nudge them to go back to cash for forex. If the concern was tracking these transactions, they said, even a nominal tax would have sufficed, and if the concern was that there was too much forex outgo, then simply reducing the LRS limit $250,000 a year at present would have done the job.
