The Indian workforce can expect an average of 7.7% increment in 2021 as per the Aon India Salary Increase Survey . This marks a rise from 6.4% last year but ex 2020 it is still the lowest salary increase since post financial crisis in 2009. (can we use the graph they have in their presentation on page 3). The rise in salaries is in co-relation with the fact the Indian economy is expected to get back on the growth track in the current year. GDP numbers due on Friday should indicate that India has exited the recession.
 No surprises that e-commerce and VC backed companies are likely to see salary hikes above the national average at 10.1% . Tech companies follow in close with an expectation of 9.7% hike. It will remain a struggle for those in Hospitality sector with a projected 5.5% rise as the industry continues to limp back into shape.
 Aon survey also indicates that average variable pay&nbsp; as a percentage the fixed pay will come down across sectors led by financial institutions.
 With 88% companies surveyed intending to give salary increases in 2021, as compared to 75% companies in 2020 the economic indicators are seemingly on the mend. Infant at 7.7% the pay hike will be better than most major economies, including Japan, the US, China, Singapore, Germany and the UK, where the average salary growth will be between 3.1% and 5.5%. (Last can also use a graphic with flags and % of hike anticipated from the presentation)

The broader markets were more active with the advances outpacing the declines holding the market breadth steady at 3:2.&nbsp;Smallcap and Midcap Indices&nbsp;rung in gains of 1% each.&nbsp;
Metal Index remained firmly higher through the day&nbsp; hitting the highest level since April 2018&nbsp;but the sheen was dragged down by financial stocks which continued their downturn.&nbsp;

Finance minister Nirmala Sitharaman proposed a tax payers&rsquo; charter in the Income Tax Act to ensure fairness to assessees and to make sure that officials in order to collect taxes do not end up harassing citizens.&nbsp;&nbsp;So what exactly is the Taxpayers Charter? A Taxpayer Charter is a unit in a tax department that explains what a taxpayer can expect from the authority and what is expected from them. The aim of the Charter is to nurture the relationship between the tax department and taxpayers.&nbsp;&nbsp;Sitharaman also proposed amendments to the Companies Act, 2013 and other laws that will take away criminal penalties for civil acts. About 44 offences under the Act are under consideration for amendment. "Businesses should have the confidence that things are fair and efficient in tax administration. A Taxpayers' Charter will be enshrined in the statute as part of our law. Our government would like to reassure taxpayers that we remain committed to taking measures so that our citizens are free from tax harassment. We are willing to put it into law, tax harassment cannot be tolerated, we mean it," she said.

In a move that is bound to bring cheer to the common man, the Govt has announced substantial cuts in the personal income tax rates.
Finance Minister Nirmala&nbsp;Sitharaman&nbsp;in her budget speech said that under the new tax regime those earning between Rs 5 lakh to 7.5 lakh&nbsp;per year&nbsp;will have to pay 10% tax compared to 20% earlier.&nbsp;
Those earning between Rs 7.5 lakh and 10 lakh&nbsp;will be taxed at 15%.&nbsp;For earnings between Rs 10 lakh to 12.5 lakh, the tax rates have been slashed to 20% tax from existing 30% and for earnings between Rs 12.5 lakh&nbsp;to 15 lakhs&nbsp;the tax&nbsp;rate will be 25%. Those earning Rs 15 lakhs&nbsp;will continue to pay 30% income tax.
But there's a catch, the new tax rates are however optional, a taxpayer will have to forego&nbsp;exemptions availed under the current tax regime if they opt for reduced tax rates.&nbsp;
