Indiana started off its new fiscal year on a positive note, collecting two percent more revenue than its spending plan expected as it begins the second year of its budget cycle.

Indiana is one of more than 20 states with a sales tax on women’s period supplies, according to the Alliance For Period Supplies.

Indiana's sales tax on gasoline will largely hold steady next month, increasing by just $0.001. But there's a bigger gas tax increase coming in July and, thanks to new legislation, several more Julys to come.

That tax rate will be 5.4 cents less than August's record-high rate of 62.4 cents, a fluctuation that comes as Indiana's 7% sales tax on gasoline is calculated monthly along with a set tax directed to road projects.

Indiana has two taxes on gasoline -- the 7% state sales tax and a tax directed to infrastructure projects.
