Centre Mulls Slashing States' Share of Taxes
Hindustan Times Rajasthan
|February 28, 2025
The government is seeking to cut the tax revenues that states receive, three people with direct knowledge of the matter said.
NEW DELHI:
The suggestion will be made to the Finance Commission of India, which makes recommendations on tax sharing along with other aspects of central-state fiscal relations, and could lead to a flaring of tensions between the two tiers of government. The panel, headed by economist Arvind Panagariya, will submit its recommendations by 31 October to be implemented from fiscal year 2026-27. The recommendations are binding.
The central government will recommend the share of taxes going to states be reduced to at least 40% from the current 41%, said one of the people. The proposal is likely to be cleared by the cabinet of ministers headed by Prime Minister Narendra Modi by the end of March and then be sent to the Finance Commission, said the second person.
