The tax on alcohol is designed to discourage people from drinking too much, while the tax on fuel is designed to reduce pollution and conserve energy.<\/p>\n<p>Agricultural produce, basic necessities, and imported goods are not typically subject to excise duty. This is because these goods are considered to be essential and the government does not want to discourage their consumption.<\/p>\n<p>In some countries, excise duty is also levied on services, such as gambling and insurance. However, this is less common than excise duty on goods.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Join Our Telegram Channel Subscribe on
