Hi friends. Basically our PM has delivered the 2014 budget presentation in the Dewan Negara. I am not going to explain the details or the salient features of the presentation, just that I would like to highlight what is available for the middle income group (Perhaps my definition for the middle income is individual who earns less than RM8K/month)
2014 middle income package is summarized as the following:
Less income tax:
- Income tax cut 1-3%.
- Households earning with less than RM4000 won't have to pay tax.
- Tax exemption of RM2000 for those earning less than less than RM8000.
- Affordable homes: Government to subsidies RM15000-RM20000 for private and public developers for low and medium cost homes as well as for sale to first home buyers.
- Real Property Gain Tax (RPGT):
Cash Aids
- Sale within 3 years of ownership: 30%
- Sale within 4 years of ownership: 20%
- Sale within 5 years of ownership: 15%
- BR1M of RM450 to be given for those earns between RM3000-RM4000.
- RM250 book voucher for tertiary education
- RM100 for primary and secondary students.
That's all the Gov of Malaysia has in stores for the Middle Income group.
HAPPY SATURDAY!
