Hi everyone,
We know for a fact that there is education Cess on Service tax,Excise,customs.
But why is it that there is no education Cess on wealth tax??
Could someone please tell the exact reason??
Thank you!!

Because Wealth tax act does not prescribe levy of the same.
Same is the case with Sales Tax (VAT)
