Taxes are the most important revenues receipts of the governments. However, some revenue receipts are non-tax revenues such as grants, on this basis, revenue receipts are of two types viz. Tax Revenue and Non-tax revenue.
Tax revenues are either from direct taxes or indirect taxes.
Non Tax Revenue Receipts are those revenue receipts which are not generated by taxing the public.
1.
Money which the Government earns as “Dividends and profits” from its profit making public enterprises (PSUs).
