    Who is obligated to pay income taxes?
    Individuals, artificial bodies, and groups of individuals who earn more than the basic exemption limit must pay income tax.
    The government collects income tax for a variety of reasons, including paying off the salaries of state and federal government employees and meeting infrastructure costs. The income tax collected by the government serves as a source of income from which the nation's development is supported.

    If the income assessed or reassessed exceeds the income declared by the assessee, or if no return is filed and income exceeds the basic exemption limit, a penalty of 50% of the tax payable on such underreported income will be imposed.
