NPC Financial and Economic Committee recently put the "further raise the personal income tax threshold, reducing the savings deposit interest tax rate" a majority of the recommendations of the experts affirmed and supported. This reporter interviewed the experts believe that, based on price and other factors, the relative flexibility in the tax threshold adjustment, the proposed tax threshold would be raised to 3000-5000 yuan; abolition of interest tax.
A reasonable tax threshold should be increased
CPPCC National Committee members, the Central University of Finance and Economics Professor HE Qiang that in recent years, the income of residents in China's continuous growth, the current tax threshold seems low, despite an adjustment, but the intensity is not fully adjusted, "on the basis of the current Again appropriately raise or reasonable, specific to the number, will have specific estimates. "
Chinese Taxation Society, vice president of the Chinese People's University professor of financial security of the rich, increase tax deductions (threshold) to 2,000 yuan, there is some controversy, the current situation, in the context of rising prices, Again appropriately raise some.
In addition, "the experience from abroad, a tax deduction on the consideration of many factors, such as population, education, insurance, housing and so on. At present, China's tax deduction in this area is still relatively small projects, from this perspective should also be re - Improve some. "Rich body of the view that, if adjusted, it should yuan in 3000-5000, the tax threshold adjustment of the resistance will not be too great, but needs approval by the National People's Congress.
Raise the tax threshold of tax reduction measures, therefore, have promulgated the view that this measure might affect the stability of financial revenue. In response, HE Qiang believes that this measure will definitely have some impact on fiscal revenue and expenditure, but the timing is quite good. The first half of fiscal income growth remains relatively fast, that a certain financial sustainability. Fu also of the view that the tax threshold increase the financial impact would not be significant.
Chinese Academy of Social Sciences researcher Yang Zhiyong Finance and Trade that the personal income tax in China is not the main taxes, income taxes accounted for only 7 percent of the plate, but the current domestic revenue growing faster, therefore, increase the tax threshold of fiscal revenue and expenditure Little impact.
Should abolish interest tax
HE Qiang proposed, should cancel the interest tax, "long-term savings deposits of residents still quite serious phenomenon of negative interest rates, abolition of interest tax will help improve the situation." He believes that in specific operations, not only to support the State Administration of Taxation, the relevant departments to To meet.
Fu also advocate of the abolition of interest tax. First of all, domestic long-term negative interest rates; Secondly, although the proportion of the rich deposits of the relatively large, but most of the low-income people, consider medical care, their children to school, also has deposits, interest tax levy impact may be greater in the poor; Third, the original charge of interest tax is taken into account the amount of domestic savings too much, trying to squeeze consumer savings, stock market to, but the current situation of little use. "Last year, interest tax rate from 20% to 5% adjustment, at the time was not completely abolished, is considered likely to remain a relatively flexible room for adjustment to the next step." Fu said that the body.
