23 January 2013 Tax Evasion:
tax evasion can be defined as paying less tax than you are legally obliged to.
.
Tax Avoidance :
Tax avoidance can be said as doing everything possible within the law to reduce the tax liability.
.
There is a clear-cut difference between tax evasion and tax avoidance. Tax evasion is an offence whereas tax avoidance may be legally acceptable.
.
TAX MITIGATION:

Tax is mitigated by a taxpayer who willingly reduces his income or incurs higher expenditure to reduce his assessable income for reduction in his tax liability.
