Answer 5

Though I'm not sure how this relates to your chosen location (Surat in India) the black economy is the part of the economy in which people work for 'undeclared' salay. Their income is not subject to tax as they are undeclared (illegal?) workers earning 'cash in the hand'..

Though we may not think taxation is fair, it provides the necessary income for governments to function in developed countries.
