It can be equal, greater or less than the tax paid. The world over, governments; local to central place a central emphasis on taxation and taxes. Bhatia (1987); Masgrave and Masgrave (1989); Plank and Jackson (1973) in the various publication on public finance, have observed that without taxation, government would not be able to finance their cardinal role of providing public services.

Protection of domestic industries from competition from dumped cheap commodities from other countries. Reduce income inequalities, especially when a given tax system is progressive in nature
