Solution

The correct option is C direct and progressive
Progressive taxation is a system where the tax outgo of the people is disproportionately higher as their income rises. Direct taxes increase as income increases, which makes them progressive. India follows a progressive tax regime. Progressive tax system means that high-income earners are taxed more than low-income ones.
