The National Parliament
has passed the Finance Bill 2021 for the next 2021-2022 financial year. In the
bill, the opportunity has been given to whiten the black money in the stock
market, flats-land purchases and a few other sectors. As a result, the
opportunity to invest undisclosed money in certain sectors remained in force in
the next financial year as well.
On Tuesday (June 29),
Finance Minister AHM Mustafa Kamal proposed to pass the bill in Parliament,
which was passed by voice vote. Speaker Dr. Shirin Sharmin Chowdhury presided
over the session. Prime Minister Sheikh Hasina was present in Parliament at the
time.
The budget for 2021-22
proposed by Finance Minister AHM Mustafa Kamal in the National Assembly on June
3 did not have the opportunity to whiten black money. However, in the end, the
money bill was passed with the opportunity to whiten black money in some
sectors. But this time 25 percent tax has to be paid to whiten the black money
in these sectors. There will be a further 5 percent fine.
The bill passed this time
did not bring any major amendment in the tax proposal. However, the corporate
tax on mobile banking services has been reduced in the bill.
Following the announcement
of the budget, mobile banking service providers (MFSs) separately applied to
the National Board of Revenue (NBR) for the reduction of corporate tax. The NBR has
thoroughly reviewed the applications of the institutions and decided to reduce
the corporate tax in this sector.
As per the decision taken
by the government, the corporate tax on mobile banking services has been
increased from 37.50 percent in the proposed budget for listed companies like
banks, insurance and financial institutions and 40 percent for unlisted companies.
It has been reduced to 30 percent.
