Taxation of income of corporate entities constitutes an important source of revenue for most of the countries across the globe. However, associated with the task of tax collection are various incentives provided for development of specific industries, and other regional considerations. In this context, it becomes essential to study the behavior of corporation tax collection and the genuineness of various concessions. Using a firm level data in the case of India, and a frontier approach, it is found that there exists a concave relationship between tax revenue and marginal tax rate. Among the determinants of inefficiency, various concessions and deductions provided to companies seem to play a significant role. But the ownership structure does not seem to explain efficiency levels.
