Corporate tax to come down to 25% once exemptions end, says FM

Finance Minister Arun Jaitley said today that corporate tax rate can be brought down to the promised 25 percent only after all the exemptions given to the industry have ended.
Speaking at a post-Budget meeting, organised by industry body Ficci, he said he had in 2015 promised to cut corporate tax rate to 25 percent, from 30 percent, in four years.
Jaitley added however that he had also set a condition — all exemptions would have to go.
It would not be proper to end exemptions midway as some industries may have been set up based on them, he said.

  • Growth through innovation/creativity:
    Rather than be constrained by ideas for new products, services and new markets coming from just a few people, a Thinking Corporation can tap into the employees.
  • Increased profits:
    The corporation will experience an increase in profits due to savings in operating costs as well as sales from new products, services and ventures.
  • Higher business values:
    The link between profits and business value means that the moment a corporation creates a new sustainable level of profit, the business value is adjusted accordingly.
  • Lower staff turnover:
    This, combined with the culture that must exist for innovation and creativity to flourish, means that new employees will be attracted to the organization.
