  Approaching the question of increasing tax to GDP ratios from the taxpayer’s perceptions, the study aims to explore whether people’s perceptions in India about tax compliance by citizens is related to their perceptions about fairness and ease of compliance on the one hand and on the perceived benefits from government spending on the other. The study proposes to survey about 150-200 individuals of different backgrounds to explore whether there are differences in perceptions. This study can be considered a pilot which could be expanded to a larger scale survey, if the initial results are found interesting.
