You can use this class

public class News
{
    public string news_id;
    public string news_title;
    public string news_short_description;
    public string news_date;
}

to deserialize the response string

using (var wc = new WebClient())
{
    JavaScriptSerializer serializer = new JavaScriptSerializer();
    var result =  serializer.Deserialize<News[]>(wc.DownloadString("http://www.taxmann.com/TaxmannWhatsnewService/Services.aspx?service=gettopstoriestabnews"));
    foreach (var item in result)
    {
        Console.WriteLine(item.news_title);
    }
}

First download a JSON library from here. And add reference to your project (Right click to your project=>Add reference=> NewtonSoft.Json.dll). After that do some coding...

using System.Newtonsoft.Json;
using System.Newtonsoft.Json.Linq;
using System.Net;

 static void Main(string[] args)
    {
        WebClient c = new WebClient();
        var data = c.DownloadString("http://www.taxmann.com/TaxmannWhatsnewService/Services.aspx?service=gettopstoriestabnews");

        JObject o = JObject.Parse(data);
        Response.Write("NewsID: "+ o["news_id"]);
        Response.Write("NewsTitle: " + o["news_title"]);


    }

You can also use "DataContractJsonSerializer" instead of JavaScriptSerializer, it's the component used by WCF to (de)serialize JSON Read this for more info: http://publicityson.blogspot.com/2010/06/datacontractjsonserializer-versus.html

Avoid DCJS. It's less flexible when [de]serializing Enums, DateTimes, Anonymous Types, and produces larger than necessary (incorrect, IMO) JSON for Dictionaries.

Yes there are drawback. But JavaScriptSerializer doesn't handle recursivity correctly (if you have object referencing itself via references to other objects). So each components have pro & cons, it's why I linked the article.

@Fabske You can also use "DataContractJsonSerializer" instead of JavaScriptSerializer OP doesn't use anything. This is not an answer, just a comment to my answer. And I, personally, prefer Json.Net whenever I have the option to choose.
