Hi,

I will try to explain in short.

Tax category:- In each country based on various business scenarios you would be having different taxes such as: local taxes, central taxes, service tax etcc., these are differentiated by tax category (Variants within taxes).

Tax classification:- There could be some exceptions to exempt these taxes based on location specific,customers specific etcc., eg: In Himachal pradesh or Arunachal Pradesh(not exactly sure about state name in India), there are tax exemption or levy of tax exemption. This requires classifications within taxes applicable.

Tax types:- as stated in your example (input & output tax). Any procurements/services rcvd would be liable for paying tax( for some there are exemptions) & services provided/ goods sold tax should be charged from the respective business partners. Complete business transaction such differentiated/identified with tax types..

hope it helps
