Deputy Chairman of the State Duma Committee on Economic Policy Mikhail Delyagin supported the bill exempting residents with income below 30 thousand rubles from personal income tax. However, he stated that this measure was insufficient. offer In an interview with NSN, a progressive tax tariff on the “super income” of the rich is also being introduced.
On the development of a relevant bill by LDPR deputies reported last year – was subsequently sent for revision. The authors of the document called the amount of 30 thousand rubles the optimal threshold for the abolition of personal income tax. The draft was presented to MPs today.
Delyagin said that you should ask the developers of the initiative how much this will cost the budget, adding that it will not be much. He also noted that more than half a trillion rubles will be frozen in the federal budget this year and that some of these funds can be used to support the poorest segment of society.
“In this case, people will keep 13% for themselves; considering this kind of income, it is not that important, but it may be noticeable to them,” the parliamentarian is convinced.
At the same time, Delyagin stated that the proposed measure was “half-hearted” and required improvement, adding that a progressive tax tariff for the rich should be introduced along with it.
“If windfall incomes are subject to high taxes, then it will be more profitable for the rich to invest these incomes in industrial development rather than personal consumption,” the parliamentarian said.
