You have a function called tax within the outer function called tax. The outer function returns nothing and the inner one is never called.
Remove the outer one to get the desired behaviour:

def calculate_tax(price):
    if price > 100000 :
        tax = (float(price * 20 / 100))
    elif price > 75000 and price <= 100000 :
        tax = (float(price * 15 / 100))
    elif price > 50000 and price <= 75000 :
        tax = (float(price * 10 / 100))
    else:
        tax = (float(price * 5 / 100))
    return tax

price = int(input())
print(calculate_tax(price))
