No you should not carry a calculator which has additional features like Tax + or Tax - . It must be an ordinary calculator with basic calculation features.

Yes man, "TAX +" and "TAX -" options are available in a normal ordinary calculator also. So you can use it in your exams. I also used the same for my exams.

Good luck
