Bengaluru entrepreneur says ₹4 crore in taxes made him quit ‘building in India’ dream; vows to leave in 2026

Amid a growing trend of Indian businesspersons opting to settle abroad, a Bengaluru entrepreneur has shared that he will be leaving India due to the country's taxation rules, which he alleges treat taxpayers with suspicion. In a post on LinkedIn, Bengaluru-based entrepreneur Rohit Shroff said that he has paid around ₹4 crore in taxes in terms of GST and income tax “to a country that looks at its most compliant contributors with suspicion by default”. He complained that tax-compliant citizens are targeted in India, without providing any evidence to back his claim.

Key Highlights

  • “In India, barely 4–5% of the population pays income tax.
  • And yet, when notices are sent, clarifications raised, and scrutiny intensified, the same small group keeps getting targeted.
  • The compliant.
  • The ones already inside the system,” Shroff claimed.
  • He described this scrutiny as “constant and layered”, with GST teams and income tax authorities leading the process, even as compliant businesses get no acknowledgement or benefits.
