Solution

The correct option is A Direct tax
When the burden of the tax falls on the person on whom the tax is imposed, it is called Direct Tax. The effect of this tax is borne by these tax payers themselves, the tax payer cannot shift the incidence of the tax upon somebody else. In other words a direct tax is demanded from the very person who it is intended or devised for.
