For India to become a lucrative country for conducting business, outsourcing work, or forming partnerships, corporate taxation needed to undergo certain changes. No foreign company would be willing to put in time and efforts expanding their business to India, if a sizeable chunk of their ROI would be eaten up by corporate taxes.

Some Points to Note

  3. 1.There will be a 4% Education cess payable on income tax and surcharge both. 2. Wholly Owned Subsidiaries (WOS) of foreign companies will be taxed as Domestic Companies and will not be levied the above slashed rates. 3. All companies will be subjected to Minimum Alternate Tax if they have losses as per income tax regulation but have book profits in their financials. 4. Companies can opt for concessional tax rates under section 115 BAA or 115BAB for specific companies. ▪What is Section 115BAA? Section 115BAA was a government initiative, undertaken through the Taxation (Amendment) Ordinance 2019 in September 2019. The objective of this initiative was to allow for reduced corporate tax rates. However, the tax rate concession can only be enjoyed by a domestic company that can tick mark certain conditions put in place by the income tax department. Individuals, LLPs, partnership firms, and a majority of the foreign companies won’t be eligible for Section 115BAA tax concessions. Once opted, companies cannot revert back to their previous taxation. For those who are eligible, following rates apply: Description Income Tax Surcharge E cess Total Companies who opt 115BAA 22 10 4 25.168 2.1. Section 115BAB

  4. Just like Section 115BAA, another scheme was introduced, specifically for manufacturing companies. This one too has a set of conditions that a company needs to fulfil in order to be eligible. Concession rates under Section 115BAB: Description Income Tax Surcharge E cess Total Companies who opt 115BAA 15 10 4 17.16 ▪Dates for Corporate Tax Payments Corporate taxes are paid in advance in 4 instalments. Companies are liable to pay interest if the advanced tax paid is not in accordance with advance tax provisions. So, what are the window periods when a company is expected to pay the tax instalments? The dates are as follows: Date % to be paid On or before 15th of June 15% of projected yearly taxable income On or before 15th of September 45% of projected yearly taxable income On or before 15th of December 75% of projected yearly taxable income On or before 15th of March 100% of projected yearly taxable income
