《2025年财政法案》提出了对所得税条款的各种修改,这些修改将从2025年4月1日起适用(相关评估年度为2026-27年)。现在,当2025年财政法案于2025年3月29日颁布时,各种修正案将从2025年4月1日起生效。
以下是自2025年4月1日起所得税条款的主要变化:
1。所得税标准税率的变化:
- 《2025年财政法案》提议对所得税标准税率进行以下修改:

- 此外,已提议根据第87A条将退款从25,000印度卢比提高到60,000卢比/-。此类退税将使所得税免税,最高可达12,00,000卢比/-。
- 修订后的Slab将自2025年4月1日起生效,也就是说,它将适用于2025-26财年期间的收入。
- 此外,没有规定对旧的税收制度进行任何修改,尽管有更高的扣除额,但它对纳税人的好处却较小。

- 卖家必须收取 TCS,并每月将其存入政府账户。
- 联邦预算已提议自2025年4月1日起撤销对商品销售的TCS。
d. TCS 阈值限制的变化
- 以下是自 2025 年 4 月 1 日起适用于 TCS 收款的修订门槛限制:

e. 取消均衡税
- 对在线广告服务,即非居民向以下人员提供的数字广告服务,按6%的税率征收均衡税:
- 居住在印度并从事专业业务的人;或
- 在印度拥有常设机构的非居民
- 均衡税是通过2016年金融法案征收的,自2020年4月1日起征收的税率为6%。
- 《2025年金融法》废除了均衡税的规定,减轻了数字广告消费者的税收负担,降低了谷歌和Meta等平台的成本。
结论:
取消均衡税、提高标准税率、对商品销售的TCS要求以及对用于教育目的的外汇汇款的TCS是一项积极的进展。这一变化将简化合规性并最终降低消费者的成本。此外,提高TDS条款的门槛限制将进一步放宽合规要求。
