liberalization growth. What is going on? Six months ago itself, there were signs of this.
00:08
If you remember Colgate, Nestle, whether we buy toothbrush, toothpaste, soap, shampoo,
00:16
everyone's sales started to decrease. All companies were complaining that demand has
00:20
slowed down. The common man does not have enough money. In fact, the CEO of Nestle said
00:28
something very controversial. He said middle class is dying, middle class is shrinking.
00:35
Six months ago, we saw the signs, but today that has come in the numbers that the GDP
00:41
has slowed down to 5.4 percent. If you look at what's happening in our economy over the
00:47
last one year, lending has been out of control. What type of lending? Not asset lending. Credit
00:54
to persons via credit cards, via fintech lending, and all of it has gone to personal
01:00
consumption. Recently, RBI cracked down on these ways of lending, and what has happened
01:06
as a result is now household debt, which we take at home, loan, which is an unsecured
01:12
loan, has started to default. So, the loan that we were taking for our personal consumption,
01:19
that has now started to creep into the NPAs of banks. And this is just the beginning.
01:26
You know, after COVID, there was pent up demand. Everybody wanted to go out. They were more
01:32
buying bigger houses. There was luxury items being purchased.
01:49
There has been no increase in salaries also. It is almost the same as it was 10 years ago.
02:03
So, imagine you are going into debt, your loan is increasing, you are not able to pay
02:08
your EMI, and at the same time you are not getting a job, there are no jobs in the market.
02:13
And on the other hand, your salary is not increasing even in your job. It is not increasing
02:19
according to inflation. And as far as the government is concerned, as far as the central
02:26
government goes, for the first time in our history, the personal income tax payers,
02:33
how much income tax revenue is received from them, it is more than the corporation in the central government.
02:39
So, the amount of money we collected from companies became less than what we collected
02:46
from individuals for the first time 4 years ago. And since then, it has only gone up.
02:52
In fact, in this year, up till now, corporate taxes are up 1.2% year on year in terms of how much money we have collected.
03:02
Only 1.2% corporate taxes have grown. That is the income tax that companies pay us.
03:07
Whereas, GST is up 12% year on year collection, and income tax, that is personal income tax,
03:16
that you and me pay, income tax payees pay, is up by 20%. So, who is funding the government today is the individual taxpayer,
03:26
not companies. 5 years ago, when the tax rate of the companies was reduced, from then till now,
03:34
tens of lakhs of crores have been lost by this government in tax revenues. And it has reached a point now,
03:41
where it is the middle class taxpayer of this country, who is actually funding this country's government's tax revenues.
03:48
It is actually happening because companies are not paying as much tax as they used to.
03:53
So, in this context, we have a regime that has created one of the worst GST systems in the whole world.
04:05
There are about 50 countries in the world where they have some equivalent of this sort of GST, which is GST or BAT.
04:12
But nobody has the number of different complications that have been put in this GST system in our country.
04:19
Few months ago, you saw, or actually rather, just I think this, earlier this month, or last month,
04:25
where you saw the finance minister try to complicate GST even more by putting 3 different taxes on 3 different forms of popcorn.
04:32
Now, on even different textiles. See, because in our country the middle class is shrinking,
04:39
the ultra-rich and the upper middle class is actually leading in consumption.
04:45
They are only buying the products. Actually, more and more consumption is shifting to them.
04:50
So, what the government thinks they can do, is they can put everything into the luxury bucket.
04:55
Above 2000 bucks, above 5000 bucks, you buy a pen, it's luxury.
