It reflects the share of taxes in the overall output generated in the country.
Statement 2 is incorrect
It has not steadily increased in the recent years.
For the year 2020-21, the direct tax decreased in relative to the previous year (2019-20).
Statement 3 is correct

The growth rate for taxes was recorded at 17.79 % in 2022-23, higher than 15.11 % nominal GDP growth.
In the overall tax collections by the government, direct tax collections accounted for 54.62 % share in financial year 2022-23, a four-year high.
Statement 4 is incorrect
Tax buoyancy explains the relationship between the changes in government’s tax revenue growth and the changes in GDP.
It refers to the responsiveness of tax revenue growth to changes in GDP.
When a tax is buoyant, its revenue increases without increasing the tax rate.
It depends upon:
the size of the tax base,
the friendliness of the tax administration,
the rationality and simplicity of tax rates.
Tax buoyancy reflects both the impacts of income and discretionary changes on revenue earnings.
