It’s sad that India’s 16th Finance Commission award has given up a tradition of tax-sharing impartiality
The 16th Finance Commission’s report reveals a centrist bias in vertical tax devolution, its tax-sharing formula among states and its critique of freebies focused just on state-level handouts. Overall, India’s poorer states will lose out as efficiency gets the better of equity.
