He presented the budget in the National Parliament on Thursday, and the Finance Minister presented the budget proposal in the presence of Speaker Shirin Sharmin Chowdhury in the National Parliament and Prime Minister Sheikh Hasina.
At present, the total assets of the individual taxpayer are to be paid at the fixed rate of surcharge at the fixed rate. That is, the assets of up to three crore rupees are free from surcharges. In the proposed budget of the next financial year, this limit is proposed to determine four crore rupees in the budget. If this proposal is passed in Parliament, no surcharge will be paid for assets of up to four crore rupees. According to the budget presented in the Parliament, the value of the net property will be exceeded 10 percent and 50 crores will exceed 50 crores.
The finance minister said that this provision of surcharge has been in force for the past few years.
The surcharge of individual taxpayers ensures the balanced distribution of the wealth and wealth of the society as well as the balance of the surcharges and the surcharges on the basis of the levy surcharge, to facilitate the surcharge of the surcharge basis and reduce the burden of the middle class taxpayers. I propose to raise the net asset value from Rs 3 crore to Rs 4 crore.’
