About 6 crore income tax returns have been filed for income earned in 2023-24, of which 70 per cent were filed under the new simplified tax regime which offers lower rate of tax, Revenue Secretary Sanjay Malhotra said on Tuesday. Addressing the post-budget session of PHD Chamber of Commerce and Industry, Malhotra said there were apprehensions as to whether people would shift to the simplified tax regime. "About 6 crore filed for last year and 70 per cent is under the new income tax regime. The whole move has been towards simplicity with the ultimate purpose being to reduce the compliance burden," Malhotra said. For the 2022-23 fiscal, 8.61 crore ITRs were filed. The idea behind comprehensive income tax review as announced in the Budget is to make the tax law simpler. "We will come up with a draft and then we will seek suggestions," Malhotra said. Currently, India has two personal income tax regimes. In the old income tax regime, the tax rates are relatively high but taxpayers can claim several exemptions and deductions. However, in the new tax regime, tax rates are lower but fewer deductions.

About 6 cr ITRs filed for FY24; 70% under new tax regime

The first draft of a new simplified income tax law, as proposed in the Budget, will be prepared by an internal committee of the tax department and will undertake stakeholder consultation before finalising the legislation, Revenue Secretary Sanjay Malhotra said on Thursday. Malhotra said that the exercise is not linked to bringing a new direct taxes code, but a comprehensive review of the income tax law. Finance Minister Nirmala Sitharaman in her Budget speech earlier this week announced that a comprehensive review of the Income-tax Act, 1961 will be completed in six months. "The purpose is to make the Act concise, lucid, easy to read and understand. This will reduce disputes and litigation, thereby providing tax certainty to the taxpayers. It will also bring down the demand embroiled in litigation," Sitharaman said. To a question whether the review would mean that the government will come with a direct tax code, Malhotra said "It is not a new direct tax code... It is a comprehensive review". He said the first draft of the simplified income tax law, post the review, would be prepared by an internal committee of the tax department. "We would like to have a collaborative approach.... The first draft will be prepared by an internal team and then we will see how to go ahead with stakeholder consultation," Malhotra said at an interactive session with industry chamber Ficci.

First draft of new and simplified Income Tax law to be prepared by internal tax dept committee: Revenue Secretary

The Income Tax department on Wednesday said 'substantial tax savings' are expected for a vast majority of taxpayers due to reduction in the long term capital gains tax (LTCG) rate in the real estate sector. The Budget has reduced tax rates on capital gains earned from sale of house properties held for long term, but has removed the indexation benefit available to taxpayers. The LTCG has been reduced from 20 per cent with indexation benefit to 12.5 per cent without indexation for the real estate sector. The indexation benefit allowed taxpayers to compute gains arising out of sale of capital assets after adjusting inflation. In a post on X, the income tax department said the nominal real estate returns are generally in the region of 12-16 per cent per annum, much higher than inflation. "The indexation for inflation is in the region of 4-5 per cent, depending on the period of holding. Therefore, substantial tax savings are expected to a vast majority of such taxpayers," it said. Giving a comparison of benefits based on the holding period of the real estate property, the I-T department said the new tax rate without indexation is beneficial in most cases. For property held for five years, the new regime is beneficial when property has appreciated 1.7 times or more, while for a property held for 10 years, it is beneficial when the value has increased 2.4 times or more. For a property purchased in 2009-10, if value has increased to 4.9 times or more, it is beneficial, it said. "From the above examples, it is clear that only where returns are low (less than about 9-11 per cent per annum) that the earlier tax rate is beneficial, but such low returns in real estate are unrealistic and rare," the I-T department said. As per the changes brought in the 2024-25 Budget, the government has retained the indexation benefit for taxpayers on properties bought or inherited before 2001. The changes in the tax rate have been made effective from July 23, 2024.

Majority of taxpayers to have substantial tax savings due to reduction of long term capital gains on real estate: IT Dept

<ul><li>You must disclose income from virtual digital assets (VDA)s such as cryptocurrencies, non fungible token (NFT)s and more in the ‘schedule VDA’ provided in the ITR form. </li><li>Schedule VDA requires information such as the acquisition date, transfer date, category of income for taxation, acquisition cost in the case of a gift, and consideration received. </li><li>The donation reference number (ARN), obtained from the form 10BE donation certificate must be included in the ITR to avail 80G deductions. </li></ul>With the income tax filing deadline less than a month away, you need to ensure you are up-to-date on all the changes that are applicable this year. While modifications in tax and taxability of income from insurance policies (other than ULIPs) are among the most notable changes that have drawn a lot of attention, there are a couple of lesser known changes one should be aware of when filing one’s taxes. We take a look at these changes. The first is about disclosing income from virtual digital assets (VDAs) such as cryptocurrencies. “The taxpayer must disclose income from VDAs such as cryptocurrencies, NFTs, and so on in the "schedule VDA" provided in the ITR form,” says Aashish Sharma, co- founder and litigation head, Lex N Tax, a tax consultancy firm. Schedule VDA requires information such as the acquisition date, transfer date, category of income for taxation, acquisition cost in the case of a gift, and consideration received. “Those who get VDA income are not eligible to file ITR-1 or ITR-4. Such income can instead be declared in ITR 2 or ITR 3. Further, income from VDAs can be taxed either under the head of business income or capital gains,” says Sharma. Budget 2022 had introduced new NFT (non fungible token) and VDA regulations. The transfer of such assets will be subject to an income tax rate of 30% plus a surcharge and a levy beginning April 1, 2022, as per recent regulations. “TDS will be deducted at 1% of the sale price beginning July 1, 2022. This tax will be deducted by the developer, intermediary, broker or donor. The taxpayers cannot set off losses or carry forward the losses within crypto or from different heads,” says Suneel Dasari, founder and chief executive officer at EZTax, a tax portal. <cmsannotation type="cmsannotation" annotationid="Provide details of donation reference number to avail 80G deductions" comment="subhead" text="Provide details of donation reference number to avail 80G deductions">Provide details of donation reference number to avail 80G deductions</cmsannotation> To avail a deduction under Section 80G for donations made to charitable institutions, non governmental organisations or research universities, it is crucial to possess the donation receipt, and the donation certificate in Form 10BE. Taxpayers must provide the necessary information regarding their donations in the relevant 'Schedule 80G' within the ITR form in order to claim the deduction. “All approved u/s 80G charitable institutions, NGOs, and research universities must submit Form 10BD for all donations received during the fiscal year. They must also provide form 10BE to the recipients,” says Dasari. Form 10BE, containing a unique registration number, will be issued to benefactors after form 10BD has been filed by the institution. It is essential to enter donation details accurately in the appropriate table while filing the ITR. There is a new column under Table D for disclosing the donation reference number (ARN) for donations made to eligible entities where a 50% deduction is allowed, subject to the qualifying limit. The ARN, obtained from the form 10BE donation certificate issued by the institutions who received the donation, must be included in the ITR. This has been implemented to match donor and donee records and reduce the prevalence of fraudulent donations claims.

The 2020-21 Budget unveiled on February 1, had announced a 'taxpayer charter', which is expected to have statutory status and will empower citizens by ensuring time-bound services by the Income Tax department. "The upcoming launch of the platform for 'Transparent Taxation - Honoring the Honest' by the Prime Minister will further carry forward the journey of direct tax reforms," the Finance Ministry said in a statement on Wednesday. The Ministry said the Central Board of Direct Taxes (CBDT) has carried out several major tax reforms in direct taxes in recent years. Last year the Corporate Tax rates were reduced from 30 per cent to 22 per cent and for new manufacturing units the rates were reduced to 15 per cent. Dividend distribution Tax was also abolished. "The focus of the tax reforms has been on reduction in tax rates and on simplification of direct tax laws. Several initiatives have been taken by the CBDT for bringing in efficiency and transparency in the functioning of the I-T Department," it said. In the Budget, Finance Minister Nirmala Sitharaman had announced that CBDT will adopt a "taxpayer charter" which will ensure trust between a taxpayer and the administration and reduce harassment, as well as increase efficiency of the department. CBDT, which is the apex decision making body in direct tax matters, administers personal income tax and corporate tax. "Wealth creators will be respected in this country," she had said in her 2020-21 Budget speech. "We wish to enshrine in the statutes a "taxpayer charter" through this budget. Our government would like to reassure taxpayers that we remain committed to taking measures so that our citizens are free from harassment of any kind," she had said. To facilitate better taxpayer services, CBDT has lowered the percentage of I-T returns picked up for scrutiny. Income Tax returns (ITRs) picked up for scrutiny has reduced to 0.25 per cent of the total ITRs filed in Assessment Year (AY) 2018-19, from 0.55 per cent in AY 2017-18. The number was 0.71 per cent in AY 2015-16 and 0.40 per cent in AY 2016-17. Taking forward faceless assessment process, the Budget also proposed to bring about "faceless appeal". Currently, most of the functions of the Income Tax Department starting from the filing of return, processing of returns, issuance of refunds and assessment are performed in the electronic mode without any human interface.

PM to launch platform to honour honest taxpayers on August 13

In spite of major concessions announced by way of an ordinance in October 2019, the Indian economy continued to dwindle in the backdrop of the global economic meltdown. The current economic situation necessitated bold steps from our Hon’ble Finance Minister (‘FM’) to present a simplified budget that would result in a quick economic turnaround. However, whether such a ‘Simplified’ budget really unlocked potential for an economic turnaround, remains a question. Some key amendments coupled with their challenges are listed below: Some key amendments: Personal Tax Regime (‘PTR’): In line with the Concessional Tax Regime (‘CTR’) introduced by the Hon’ble FM in October 2019 which focused solely on corporates, a PTR has been introduced which focuses on providing alternative lower tax rates to individuals/HUF. The aforesaid concessional tax rate is applicable subject to the following conditions: <ol><li>The Individuals and HUFs having various incomes would not be allowed to claim any deductions/incentives, them being - <ul><li>Certain business deductions and deductions from other incomes</li><li>House property deduction</li><li>Salary deductions including standard deduction and professional tax</li><li>Major deductions under Chapter VI-A (i.e. deductions under section 80C, 80D, etc) and</li><li>Set-off/carry forward of losses in relation to the above </li></ul></li></ol><ol><li>Further, Alternative Minimum Tax (‘AMT’) shall not be applicable to an individual/HUF opting for PTR. Consequently, carry forward and set off of AMT credit shall not be allowed.</li></ol>In view of the above amendments, an individual having salary income as a major source of income and making investments in various schemes/instruments (For example, LIC premiums, PPF, ELSS, etc.) may not consider opting for PTR. It needs to be seen whether such a scheme is welcomed by the taxpayers at large or not. Dividend Distribution Tax (‘DDT’) Abolition: The Finance Bill proposes to abolish DDT in the hands of domestic companies and tax the same in the hands of the recipient. Accordingly, domestic companies declaring dividends shall be required to deduct TDS @ 10% on dividends exceeding INR 5,000 per shareholder. Further, it has been proposed to provide a deduction of interest expense of upto 20% of dividend income received in the hands of the shareholders under income from other sources. Lastly, in order to remove the cascading effect of taxes, dividend distributed by companies for a particular year (subject to conditions) shall be allowed as a deduction from dividend income. The benefit of deduction has also been extended to companies opting for CTR. However, the amendment leaves certain areas which need to be addressed: <ul><li>No scientific mechanism exists to allow deduction of expenses to the shareholders and only an ad-hoc deduction of interest expense capped at 20% of dividend income is allowed</li><li>In view of the above, the Company vs LLP structure needs to be re-evaluated</li><li>In case of banks and NBFCs where dividend income is a major source of business income, no separate provisions have been carved out</li></ul>Though the above is in line with the longstanding demand of the corporate world, only time will be able to tell whether the objective of earning higher taxes is achieved by these amendments. The above amendments also open-up the question of selection of an offshore jurisdiction for investing in Indian companies. Other Key Amendments A. Start-ups – Rationalising tax provisions and ESOP Taxation With a view to rationalise the tax deduction provisions for start-ups, the following amendments are proposed: <ul><li>100% profit deduction for an eligible start-up for any 3 consecutive years out of 10 years; and </li><li>Threshold of turnover for an entity, to be eligible as a start-up, has been increased to INR 100 Crores </li></ul> Further, in order to ease the burden of tax payment for employees of eligible start-ups, it is proposed to defer the timing of taxation of ESOPs perquisites. The amendment proposes to tax ESOP at the earliest of the following event: <ul><li>Expiry of 5 tears from the end of the relevant financial year; or</li><li>Date of sale by individual taxpayer; or</li><li>Date of cessation of employment</li></ul>These are welcome steps that would go a long way in providing ease of doing business for start-ups. Existing companies in the technology space must evaluate the possibility of obtaining necessary approval to claim exemption. B. Tax withholding on e-commerce transactions TDS @ 1% shall be made applicable on payments by e-commerce operators (who own/operate a digital e-commerce platform) to e-commerce participants (who sell goods/providing services/both). Further, exception is provided for payments to such a participant who is an individual/HUF if the transaction value during a particular AY is less than INR 500,000 This amendment will not only add compliance obligation on the e-commerce platforms but would also bring larger population of service providers and goods suppliers under the tax net. C. Increasing Tax Audit Turnover Threshold The FM proposes to increase the turnover threshold for tax audit applicability to INR 5 Crores, provided that the aggregate cash receipts/cash payments by such taxpayer do not exceed 5% of the total receipts/payments respectively during the financial year. This move is again intended with a view to move towards a cashless economy. D. Stay by the Hon’ble Income-tax Appellate Tribunal (‘ITAT’) ITAT may grant a stay of demand for upto a maximum of 365 days on a condition that the taxpayer deposits not less than 20% of the amount of tax, interest, fee, penalty, etc. Though the law seems to have been proposed, it would need to be seen whether condition can be applied to the judicial power of adjudicating authority. Since taxpayers at various levels are now being provided alternative tax regimes, the same may lead to complication of the tax regime with minimal benefits. TDS levied on dividend payments to shareholders/payments by e-commerce operators shall only increase the TDS compliance burden of large companies and e-commerce MNCs respectively. The impact of such complications and compliances on ease of doing business need to be evaluated.

A top tax expert decodes the new Income Tax regime changes announced in the Budget

If you earn ₹15 lakh, you save ₹15,600 with the new tax regime but you can’t claim tax benefits worth ₹73,000

<ul><li>The government has introduced new 'optional' tax slabs for individual taxpayers.</li><li>Instead of five different tax slabs, the new tax regime has seven tax slabs.</li><li>It also the lowers the tax for income between ₹12.5 lakh to ₹15 lakh from 30% to 25%.</li></ul>New tax slabs have been proposed by the Direct Tax Code panel to boost consumption and investment. The government hopes that increased purchasing power will push demand ahead of supply, incentivising firms to ramp up production which will reflect in GDP growth in the next financial year. The new tax slabs increase the minimum taxable limit from ₹2.5 lakh to ₹5 lakh. At the other end of the segment, anyone earning up to 15 lakh annually will be subject to 25% tax rate instead of 30%. However, the new tax slabs are only applicable to people who do not opt for exemptions under the tax regime -- including deductions under 80C of PF, LIP, standard deduction, LTC, house rent allowance, minor income exemption, interest deduction on home loans among others. Essentially, individual tax payers now have the choice to choose between the two tax regimes depending on their requirements. "The complex tax regime for taxpayers with the slabs rejig. With the optional new regime, taxpayers will have to evaluate what works better. Those committed to long term saving and investing via 80C may be discouraged and this may likely demotivate taxpayers from tax-saving linked investing," said Archit Gupta from Clear Tax. There will be no tax levied on annual income upto ₹5 lakh. However, if you cross that threshold tax will charged for income above ₹2.5 lakh. <table style="border-width: initial; border-style: none; width: 468pt; table-layout:

arrest job losses taking the pressure off of the country’s unemployment crisis. More jobs, would again, increase purchasing power resulting in a growth cycle. It could also increase the government’s burden On the flip side, experts expect lower tax rates to weigh on the exchequer. Tax revenue collection has often been criticized for being inefficient. However, the ultimate outcome depends on how the cycle of investment and economic growth plays out. Tax revenue could increase if the new tax cuts result in greater compliance over the next two to three years. This is also an attempt by the government to simplify the tax laws, which are known to be one of the most complicated in the world.
