The responsibility of paying the tax falls directly on the taxpayer, and the burden cannot be shifted to another party. Indirect taxes are those that are not directly levied on income but on goods and services. These taxes are collected by intermediaries (like retailers) from the consumers who bear the ultimate economic burden.
