3 percent is proposed.

HIGHLIGHTS…
 Whitening black money now to be more lucrative than ever. As a special scheme,
Significant relaxation is proposed by means of restricting/limiting jurisdiction of all
authorities regarding sources of untaxed money by individual tax payer:-
 if tax paid at a rate of 10% and investment made in movable property;
 If tax paid at lower rate, prior year investment in immovable properties, i.e.
Land, Building, Apartments could be declared in Tax return of current year.
 Proposed to reduce the tax rate by 2.5% for not publicly traded company (at present
35%) thus resulted reduction of the gap with publicly traded (which is 25%). This is,
indeed a good move. However, no reduction of tax rate for publicly traded company
may adversely impact to the pursuit of listing the stock into capital.
 Proposed to widen the scope of tax holiday by additional 7 industrial sector, ((i)
Electrical transformer; (ii) Artificial fiber or manmade fiber manufacturing; (iii) Automobile parts and
components manufacturing; (iv) Automation and Robotics design, manufacturing including parts and
components thereof; (v) Artificial Intelligence based system design and/ or manufacturing; (vi)
Nanotechnology based products manufacturing; (vii) Aircraft heavy maintenance services including
parts manufacturing)

HIGHLIGHTS…
 As a penalty, tax at a rate 50% to be imposed on laundered money/capital flight/false
investment through over/under invoicing or other means
 Proposed to reduced rate of VAT collection at import stage on raw materials for manufacturing
industries to 4% from 5% which is good move
 Proposed to increase tax free income limit by Tk. 50,000 for each category of tax payers and
lowest tax rate of 5% (in place of 10% now) for the first Tk. 1 lac of taxable income and
Abolishment of Super Tax rate of 30%. This proposal, if approved will results benefits mostly to
assessee having taxable income (i) lower than Tk. 20 lac; and (ii) higher of Tk. 60 lac.
Meaning middle class people (i.e. assesse) having taxable income between Tk. 20 lac plus to
Tk. 60 lac won’t have much of relief in term of direct tax. However, middle class left out as
always
 Proposed to increase in excise duty on bank balance above Tk. 10 lac, which may turn to be
counter productive to the continuous pursuit in bringing discipline in financial transaction
 Proposal of Tax deduction at a rate of 2% on local LC of commodities may results rises of price
at consumer level
 Proposed increase of supplementary duty by 5 percent on all telecom-related services
