Generation-skipping tax

In order to prevent the avoidance of transfer tax, which includes both estate tax and gift tax, a specific type of tax is imposed. This tax is known as generation-skipping tax and its purpose is to ensure that wealth is not passed down from one generation to the next without being subject to proper taxation. This measure helps to maintain a fair and equitable distribution of wealth within a society.
