The correct answer is

Wealth tax 

The correct answer is Wealth tax.

Indirect taxes, like GST or Customs Duty, tend to be regressive or proportional in effect, as everyone pays the same rate regardless of their income level when consuming a taxed good or service. In India, the Goods and Services Tax (GST) subsumed many indirect taxes like Service Tax, Central Excise Duty, VAT, etc., to create a unified tax system. Direct taxes, like Income Tax, continue to be administered separately.
