As an example, compare three or four stocks that trade between 100,000 to 500,000 shares per day with stocks that trade 5 million shares per day. First, you will notice that the bid and ask spread is much larger and thinner in the lower volume stocks. Second, you will find that when there is a large buy or sell order, the price of the stock moves proportionately further than with the higher volume stocks. Obviously, those in favor of the tax have not realized the magnitude of this indirect transactional cost. Even scarier, the stress of these additional costs to investors could drive their interests to the markets of other countries. New York is already faced with stiff competition from London and other locations that would love to have the markets we now enjoy.

If you do not want to wait for a long time to get your tax refund, you need to make sure that you do tax planning as early as possible. You need to assess your tax liability and if need be, take additional help from a tax expert. You also need to invest or save expense bills according to the assessment of your tax liability. Finally, if you are a salaried individual, you need to declare your investments to your employer so that they can deduct the correct amount of tax from your salary.In conclusion, it is important that you keep track of any refunds you are eligible for, since there have been many complaints about refunds being delayed for a long time and recently there was some disturbing news about a few data entry operators working for the Income Tax department in Delhi, who diverted money meant for tax refunds into fake accounts. The Delhi Police is probing the case. As mentioned before, you can always check your refund status online and if need be visit the local tax department office in your area.

The incidence of the proposed Commodities Transaction Tax will increase the cost of transactions on Indian organised commodities markets, increase arbitrage, due to high cost of transactions in organised commodities markets, and also render Indian Commodities Markets uncompetitive globally, thus driving away Indian commodities trading business to global markets under the open global commodities risk hedging policy of the reserve bank of India, said Confederation of Indian Industry.
