The Bachchans have overtaken the Khans and Kumars to become the highest tax payers for financial year 2012-2013.
Back in March, Amitabh Bachchan was announced as the individual highest Advance Tax Payer in Central Charge — Mumbai. He paid 25 crore tax then.
The estimated amount for the current accounting year for Mr Bachchan was around 37 cr. The Mumbai Income Tax department had even congratulated the superstar for being the highest tax payer in Central.
