“Consumption will increase by more than 10 %, and GDP is 8 %: EXAA KV Subramanian after the tax cuts in the budget 2025

The chief former economic advisor, Krishnamurthi, praised Supramanan with personal income tax discounts (PIT) announced in the budget 2025-26, describing its influence on the “huge” economy. In response to the transfer of Finance Minister Nermalla Sitaramann to exempt annual income, which reaches 12 income tax rupees under the new system, Subramanian expected a big boost for both consumption and GDP growth.

“The effect of personal income tax (PIT) is huge !!! I can consume in the 26th fiscal year> 10 % and Will GDP ↑↑ at a rate> 8 %.”

As the numbers are destroyed, Subramanian highlighted that the tax exemption will directly achieve the rupees of the Cham rupee in the hands of the middle layer, which increases the disposable income. Given that the middle layer usually provides about 20 % of its income, and it is estimated that 80 % of this additional income available will flow into consumption.

Using a consumption double -1/(1 – MPC) formula, where MPC (the marginal mile of consumption) is 0.8 – Subramanian has a double account 5. This indicates that the tax reduction can pay 5 Crown rupees in consumption. “This year, the increase in consumption is 7.3 % with the growth of GDP by 6.4 %. For the 26th fiscal year, even without the hole reduction, consumption growth was expected to be about 7.2 %. With tax reduction, we are looking for joint growth More than 12 % in consumption. “

For gross domestic product, Subramanian estimates will add tax relief by 2.7 % to growth, which leads to an increase in the expected gross domestic product of 6.3 % (without tax reduction) to 9 %. It even represents excessive estimation of excessive estimation, expects a conservative manner of GDP growing exceeding 8 %.

The announcement of the Sitharaman budget also included a standard opponent, raising the tax -exempt income threshold for taxpayers with lives to 12.75 Rs. This step is expected to benefit millions of individuals of the middle class, giving them more spending power, and as Subramanian suggests, it is likely to lead an economic increase led by consumption.
