The Federation of Bangladesh Chambers of Commerce and Industry (FBCCI), the country’s apex trade body, will be advocating for an increase in the tax-free income limit by Tk1 lakh to Tk4.5 lakh in a meeting with the National Board of Revenue (NBR) on 4th April. The body is also likely to propose an increase in the tax-free threshold for women and senior citizens to Tk5 lakh, as the nation is experiencing high inflation. The current tax-free income limit stands at Tk3.5 lakhs. In the fiscal year 2023-24, the government had raised the tax-free income limit by Tk50,000 from Tk3 lakh. Income tax rates currently stand at 5 percent for the next Tk1 lakh, 10 percent for the subsequent Tk3 lakh, 15 percent for the next Tk4 lakh, 20 percent for the following Tk5 lakh, and 25 percent for the remainder of the income.
