23 January 2013 Tax Evasion:
tax evasion can be defined as paying less tax than you are legally obliged to.

Tax avoidance can be said as doing everything possible within the law to reduce the tax liability.

There is a clear-cut difference between tax evasion and tax avoidance. Tax evasion is an offence whereas tax avoidance may be legally acceptable.

Tax is mitigated by a taxpayer who willingly reduces his income or incurs higher expenditure to reduce his assessable income for reduction in his tax liability.
