“I saw a great receptivity to this project from the senators,” said Gleisi. “After the National Congress voted for the tax reform on consumption, bringing efficiency, the Chamber also thinks that it must start having an response to tax on tax and property”.

The main source of compensation is the Taxation on the richest with a minimum income rate. It begins to focus on those who have an income greater than $ 600 thousand per year (R $ 50 thousand per month) and reaches 10% on those who earn $ 1.2 million or more per year (R $ 100 thousand per month).

The change made by lira in relation to the original text of the farm has excluded the “income free from” rural activity “called from the sum of the income that will serve to frame the taxpayer as a high income. This represents 80% of the revenue obtained by the rural producer – only 20% is the tax base.

Lira also excluded the gains of the calculation base obtained with financial investments, such as Lcis, Lcas, Cris, Cra, meetings, encouragement and infrastructure investment funds (FIP-SI).

The text states that the amount spent for the scholarships of the Prouni is considered the tax paid in the calculation of the actual tax rate of the legal entities that have joined the program, which can reduce the tax accident on the dividend of partners.

The amounts collected in commissions and other payments that are sent to the courts of justice has also ignored the calculation of notaneous income.

Finally, Lira incorporated a measure to try to compensate the states and the Municipalities in the IR collected by their servers who earn up to $ 7,350.
