SRK beats Akshay Kumar as Bollywood's top tax payer



Bollywood badshah Shahrukh Khan has done it yet again as he replaces the Khiladi Akshay Kumar as the number one tax payer from Bollywood for the second quarter of financial year 2011. Shahrukh Khan has coughed up Rs 5 crore to the IT department as against the Rs 3.5 crore paid in the same quarter last year, reports CNBC-TV18's Ashwin Mohan quoting sources.

Akshay has managed to come a close second having paid Rs 4.5 crore in Q2 of FY11 with Aamir Khan following by shelling out Rs 4 crore as tax versus Rs 3.5 crore paid in the same quarter of the previous year.

The fourth spot was shared by the Chote Nawab Saif Ali Khan and chocolate hero Ranbir Kapoor who paid Rs 2.5 crore each as tax during the same period.

However, the very Dabangg Salman Khan paid only Rs 2 crore compared to the Rs 2.5 crore in the same quarter last year.

Hindi film actresses followed suit with the Barbie doll of the Bolly brigade Katrina Kaif shelling out Rs 1.3 crore versus Rs 1 crore paid in Q2FY10 and tough competitor Kareena Kapoor adding Rs 1 crore to the tax kitty as against Rs 80 lakh paid same quarter last year.

And the rest is history… Where Hritik Roshan paid a meager Rs 50 lakh as against the Rs 3 crore paid in second quarter of FY10 and Arbaaz Khan spent Rs 10 lakh as against Rs 50 lakh last year. While director Sanjay Leela Bansali spent Rs 50 lakh on tax in the second quarter as against Rs 25 lakh paid last year, Vishal Bharadwaj gave Rs 25 lakh versus Rs 15 lakh to the IT department.
