Budget proposes review of Income Tax Act of 1961 in six months

58% of corporate tax came from the simplified tax regime in 2022-23 and more than 2/3rd of taxpayers have used the new personal tax regime last year. I propose to review the Income Tax Act of 1961 to reduce litigation, in six months. A beginning is being made in the Finance Bill by easing the tax regime for charities. Two tax exemption regimes for charities are proposed to be merged into one, the FM said.
