Indirect taxes are a form of cost that goes into the final cost of the end product. Direct taxes paid would be sales taxes and such, but indirect taxes would be taxes paid by the manufacturer of goods that ultimately goes into the cost of goods sold.
Incidence of indirect taxes indicate how much burden of indirect taxes will be borne by the producers and how much by the consumers by way of rise in price.
Direct taxation is defined as the tax which is directly levied on the citizens of a country. All individuals and business concerns have to pay direct taxes to the government on a regular basis. These direct taxes are calculated on every source of income that accrues to the business of individual.On the other hand, the citizens of a country are charged certain levies indirectly as well. These indirect levies are known as indirect taxes. These are the taxes payable on an activity or a commodity. Some common examples of indirect taxes are sales tax and excise tax.

The difference between direct taxes and indirect taxes with examples is that direct taxes come directly from a person's income or personal property taxes. Indirect taxes comes from sales and excise taxes.
A direct tax is one that is taken directly from the individual, such as income tax. Indirect taxes, such as sales tax, are collected by merchants and taken from the consumer. Indirect taxes also lead to inequalities while direct taxes do not.
A direct tax is tax paid directly to the Government, by a person whom the tax is imposed on. An indirect tax is paid indirectly to the Government, trough a third party.A direct tax would be taxes like income taxes, where a person must personally pay a certain amount to the government. Indirect taxes are taxes such as property, social security, and sales tax, where there price of tax is either deducted from wages or added onto the payment of an item. The indirect taxes are paid the Government by the business that collects the tax.
