Fill in the blank with the most appropriate word.
Those earning less than Rs.10,000 are ___________ from paying income tax.
Show answer & explanation
Correct answer: B
Explanation
The correct answer is option 2 i.e. exempted.
Let's have a look at the meaning of the given options:-
- exempted- to say officially that somebody does not have to do something or pay for something.
- adjusted- to change something slightly, especially because it is not in the right position.
- collected- calm and in control of yourself, your feelings, thoughts, etc.
- accepted- to agree to take something that somebody offers you.
That statement and the chosen option both have the link with the "payment" hence, the chosen option will be correct.
