Abstract
Societies social welfare can be connected to equity as well as high level of income between households. From this point of view, one of major responsibilities of being social state is to precisely find out extend of income equity between households and then determine on ward policies towards fair distribution. For this purpose, tax policies are one of the major tools of governments. in this study it is empirically examined to find out how governments' tax policies, after 1994, fit with the policy of fair income distribution. Direct and indirect tax revenues in their sub-groups took into account and comparisons made. it is found that applied tax policies, over the period, were the aim of government to increase its revenues rather than re-distribute income from rich to poor.
