Lower tax thresholds to create 30,000 new files, with inevitable price hikes
With the government’s proposal to reduce the registration threshold of the Value Added Tax and the Social Security Contribution Levy, some 25,000 to 30,000 new tax files are expected to be opened, targeting revenue of over Rs 150 billion.
...
In turn, small and medium business entities, including grocery shops under the tax net, will now be forced to register if they have an average turnover of Rs 100,000 a day, and it is likely the tax burden will be transferred onto consumers.
A senior Inland Revenue Department (IRD) official said that although the traders are not expected to pass on the tax to the consumers, it is inevitable.
...
Meanwhile, the IRD’s former Deputy Commissioner General, N. M. M. Mifly, told the Sunday Times that reducing the threshold to bring small and medium enterprises under the tax net is unfair since most of the retailers purchase goods from VAT-registered importers and manufacturers.
“Fairness is critical when it comes to taxation. We have to consider the ability of taxpayers to bear the burden,” he stressed.
As part of increasing more revenues to state coffers, the government is to impose VAT and SSCL on imported coconut oil and palm oil, replacing the current Special Commodity Levy of Rs 150 per kilogram and Rs 275 per kilo, imposed respectively.
