Top 10% of urban households were 50000 times wealthier than the bottom 10% based on NSSO. Most impoverished among them have per capita space equivalent to or less than a 10 sq.ft. room for their sustenance. The 27-storey Antilla takes up 400,000 sq.ft! #TaxTheTop

The common person is paying Rs. 1100 for a LPG cylinder. The govt's budgetary allocation for LPG subsidy has come down to a mere Rs. 180 cr. At the same time, the corporate tax cut translates into 'revdies' for corporates amounting to more than Rs. 1.1 lakh cr/year! #TaxTheTop
