Unincorporated enterprises often bypass formal regulations in general and taxation in particular. Bringing unincorporated enterprises under the taxation system is a challenge often faced by tax administrators, and it is in this regard that the present study explores the factors which influence the decision of unincorporated enterprises to register with the state value added tax (VAT)/sales tax authority across states in India. This analysis is limited to the decision regarding registration. It is not necessary that enterprises that are registered pay taxes and/or file returns—however, the process of registration does provide some information to the tax department for follow ups. The study throws up some interesting results for policymakers and tax administrators. JEL Classification: H25, H32, H26, L53

В статье отмечается, что действующая налоговая политика как регулятор экономики, не выполняет в полной мере своей стимулирующей функции. В этой связи возникает настоятельная необходимость исследования и анализа действия механизма функционирования налоговых отношений с позиции социально-экономических проблем в сочетании с национальными особенностями Казахстана, накопленным отечественным опытом налоговой политики и сложившейся модели хозяйствования. Авторами статьи отмечается, что, будучи материальными носителями налоговых отношений, рассматриваемые финансовые ресурсы, представляют собой находящиеся в руках государства и имеющие форму фондов денежных средств целевого назначения. Их размер выступает важной характеристикой экономического и социального развития страны, а рациональное использование во многом определяет темпы общественного прогресса. Проведен анализ динамики ВВП и объема промышленности, доходов государственного бюджета Республики Казахстан за 2011-2020 годы, налоговых поступлений и размера недоимки по видам налогов за ряд лет. Выделено, что основными направлениями совершенствования налогового механизма и налоговой системы должны быть: предоставление налоговых каникул для малого бизнеса, рассрочка уплаты НДС, снижение налогообложения на дивиденды и прибыль при продаже ценных бумаг, увеличение предельного объема годового оборота для перехода на упрощенную схему взимания налогов и др. В статье предложены конкретные рекомендации по увеличению доходной части государственного бюджета, совершенствованию налоговой системы Казахстана. The article notes that the current tax policy as a regulator of the economy does not fully fulfill its stimulating function. In this regard, there is an urgent need to study and analyze the operation of the mechanism of the functioning of tax relations from the standpoint of socio-economic problems in combination with the national characteristics of Kazakhstan, the accumulated domestic experience of tax policy and the established economic model. The authors of the article note that, being the material carriers of tax relations, the considered financial resources are in the hands of the state and in the form of funds of targeted funds. Their size is an important characteristic of the country's economic and social development, and their rational use largely determines the rate of social progress. The analysis of the dynamics of GDP and the volume of industry, revenues of the state budget of the Republic of Kazakhstan for 2011-2020, tax revenues and the amount of arrears by types of taxes for a number of years is carried out. It is highlighted that the main directions of improving the tax mechanism and tax system should be: providing tax holidays for small businesses, payment by installments of VAT, reducing taxation on dividends and profits when selling securities, increasing the maximum volume of annual turnover for the transition to a simplified tax collection scheme, etc. The article offers specific recommendations for increasing the revenue side of the state budget, improving the tax system in Kazakhstan.

This chapter places Texas and California on the national spectrum of state tax policy and shows how they occupy opposite poles. Texas has maintained a low overall tax burden and is one of a small number of states that has steadfastly refused to adopt an income tax. Advocates of the Texas tax system argue that it protects personal freedom, promotes economic growth, and provides the state a crucial advantage in attracting new residents and businesses. Critics say the system is regressive and fails to produce adequate funding for government programs. By comparison, California has embraced a far higher tax burden and a progressive tax structure. Its largest revenue source, the personal income tax, is the highest in the nation. Advocates say California’s tax system generates needed funding for government programs and appropriately shifts the tax burden to those most able to pay, while critics say these taxes are excessive and help drive residents and businesses out of the state.

The study showed that reform is effective for young people, whose total duration of participation in the pension scheme is 40 years. In this case, the pension scheme provides a high replacement rate, which is not possible for persons whose participation in the pension scheme is not more than 20 years. An obstacle remains the pressure of the pension system on the State budget. Despite the establishment of a funded pension system, the old-age pension still remains accessible to participants of the scheme, which, as noted by the authors of the reform, by 2030, will have a significant share in the structure of the State budget spending.
