Primary data were collected from 250 employees in Amritsar, Jalandhar, Ludhiana, and Chandigarh using a standardized OECD questionnaire. Out of these, 200 valid responses were analyzed through descriptive statistics, t-tests, and ANOVA.The findings reveal that government employees possess comparatively higher levels of financial and tax literacy than non-government employees. Most respondents demonstrated average financial literacy and medium tax literacy, indicating a reasonable understanding of financial and taxation concepts. The study also found that demographic variables significantly influence literacy levels.The study recommends strengthening financial and tax education through awareness programs, training workshops, and institutional initiatives. Improved literacy can enhance financial decision-making, tax compliance, personal financial well-being, and contribute to overall economic development and financial inclusion.
