A Low Down on Simpler, Shorter, Crisper Income Tax Bill, 2025

The New Indian Express Mangaluru

|

February 15, 2025

THE New Income Tax Bill 2025, which will replace the 1961 Act, is an attempt at simplifying the tax rules.

- BEN KOCHUVEEDAN @Mumbai

While the Bill is shorter and crispier, the language has been simplified.

The Bill has nearly halved the sections (819 to 536), and the number of chapters to 23 from 47. In terms of word count, the reduction is nearly 50% to 2.6 lakh words from 5.12 lakh running into 622 pages, down from 1,647 pages. Another key change is doing away with the 1,200 provisos and the 900 explanations - each change in taxation laws have been passed by Parliament and become part of existing Act - in the new Bill presented in the Lower House on Thursday.

Here are some of the important changes that may affect the common taxpayers:

WHEN A CLEAN-UP BECOMES A MESS

A year ago, the idea of a massive nationwide exercise to visit every single household to verify, add, or delete voters was not on anyone’s radar. After all, the Narendra Modi government did not even conduct the mandatory dec-adal census. Chief Election Commi sioner Gyanesh Kumar took charge in February 2025 and, for three months, did not utter the term ‘special intensive revision’ (SIR). Suddenly, one day in June, the CEC announced a nationwide SIR beginning with Bihar. Why so suddenly and so hastily?
