The crisp & compact budget presented by FM today recognized the impact made by ‘Start-ups’ and ‘MSME’ on the industrial ecosystem. ‘One Nation, One Registration’ is a good move towards doing anywhere registration as it will facilitate ease of living & doing business. The existing tax benefits for Startups that were offered redemption of taxes for 3 consecutive years will be extended by 1 more year i.e. till March 31, 2023. The move to cap long-term capital gains at 15% cent will bring cheer for angel investors as it will reduce the tax from 28.5% to 23%.
Green initiatives, green bonds, and E-Passports are other praiseworthy initiatives, which need to be watch out for. However, the budget remains focussed on ‘Atma-Nirbhar Bharat’ particularly in the fields of industry, defence, and energy.
