I think you have maxed out legally . The tax that you are paying should be looked upon as national service - it's not much compared to what you earn.

This year I paid 62 lakh tax. I would be happy to pay 30 but honesty comes with a huge price.

The day I feel cheated or odd one out I will leave this country. But i definitely don't mind helping this country with 30l from taxes. Though at my level it's tremendous hard work, stress and sacrifice to earn my salary

I love how someone summarised it beautifully. When we were alone, government wanted us to do all things by ourselves. Now that we are earning something, they want a share of our pie.
