As per my knowledge, the same is not taxable as on day.

for "AJOY KR. MUKHERJEE" :

Earth evacuation, alike other minerals, sand, metal, implies payment of royalty and other local taxes, which has to be paid at point of origin /loading.

This cannot be avoided and is punishable with Fine /Panalty /Imprisonment.

If you have purchased soil, why is that you have to pay the tax, let the vendor pay it.
