Currently, affected by the new crown pneumonia epidemic, most individual businesses are facing difficulties such as reduced customer sources, rising costs, and tight funds. In this regard, the tax department focuses on the difficulties and pain points of individual industrial and commercial households, and uses more direct preferential policies and more effective assistance measures to help the "small shop economy" rejuvenate.
Ge Yu Xuan Restaurant is located in Xiaolan Town, Zhongshan City, Guangdong Province. It is a popular local restaurant. However, under the impact of the epidemic, the restaurant's turnover in the first quarter was less than 20% of the same period in previous years, which made the owner He Quan worry. After learning more about the actual difficulties of the restaurant, the tax department took the initiative to lower the annual quota for Ge Yuxuan. "After adjusting the quota, the restaurant is expected to be able to reduce taxes and fees of about 75,000 yuan throughout the year. This is a relief for us!" He Quan said.
Not only the catering industry, but the commerce industry is also one of the industries that have been significantly affected by the epidemic. Wang Chuandeng, owner of Fengrui Furniture Store in Ninghai County, Ningbo City, said: “Affected by the epidemic, sales this year have plummeted. Sales are not going up, but monthly fixed expenses such as rent and wages have not changed. The operating pressure is really too great. Up."
When Wang Chuandeng was unable to do anything, the local tax department took the initiative to send the policy to his door. "The collection rate for small-scale taxpayers has dropped from 3% to 1%. We have reduced or exempted a total of 21,000 VAT. The help of real money and silver has given us more confidence to stick to it." Thanks to preferential tax policies. , Fengrui Furniture survived the most difficult time and gradually recovered profitability, achieving sales of 1.03 million yuan in the second quarter.
"In response to the epidemic, a series of tax and fee reduction policies were issued in a timely manner to help individual industrial and commercial households to tide over the difficulties. Recently, the state has clearly continued to implement relevant tax preferential policies that support small and micro enterprises and individual industrial and commercial households, and steadily resume work and production for market entities. Provided important help." said Fan Yong, a professor at the Central University of Finance and Economics.
He Ming runs a dental clinic in the old town of Mouding County, Yunnan Province. Because of its excellent technology and reasonable prices, he is well-known in the local area. Affected by the epidemic, the clinic has been unable to operate normally for more than two consecutive months, with little income. "Thanks to the phased social insurance fee reduction policy, my urgent need has been alleviated! Before August, our clinic enjoyed a discount of RMB 17,600 for three social insurance premiums for the company and RMB 6,000 for the half-collection of medical insurance. The money is just enough to settle the drug payment that was owed before." He Ming said.
The "tax-bank interaction" has also continued to expand, attracting capital for individual industrial and commercial households. Cixi Xinpu Qikai Electrical Appliance Fittings Factory is an individual industrial and commercial household that produces heaters and other electrical fittings. Affected by the epidemic, the payment of goods usually needs to be delayed by one to three months, and the capital turnover is under pressure. "Unexpectedly, individual industrial and commercial households can also successfully apply for credit loans. It really saves a lot of heart through the'tax-bank interaction' platform." said Li Tanfeng, the person in charge of the parts factory. "The taxation department took the initiative to connect with China Construction Bank to help us I successfully applied for the'Cloud Tax Loan' of 95,000 yuan. As soon as I got the loan, I immediately paid for the purchase of raw materials, and I finally felt at ease."
Li Xuhong, a professor at the Beijing National Accounting Institute, believes that taxation plays a positive role in stimulating market vitality under the current background of accelerating the formation of a new development pattern in which the domestic large cycle is the main body and the domestic and international double cycles promote each other. On the one hand, the implementation of various preferential policies has effectively reduced the burden on market entities such as individual industrial and commercial households; on the other hand, taxation big data and other means can track their business and production status in time, resolve practical difficulties in time, and help various entities understand policies and enjoy Concessions to further smooth the virtuous circle.
