From the plastic tax to the bonus facades but not for the hotels, from the sugar tax that is postponed to October 1st 2020 to the near zero of the hold on company cars. These are some of the measures envisaged by the maneuver that is preparing to receive the green light from the Senate in the evening.

The budget law gives the green light to a new increase in the excise duty safeguard clauses on fuels and to the tax on fortune that rises to 20%. Instead, the rule on cannabis light , the Tobin tax on digital financial transactions and the one that established the postponement from July 2020 to January 1, 2022 of the end of the market protected for energy come out of inadmissibility. The strengthening of the role of Consob against online financial scams, the digital bill , the rules for the personnel of the provinces and those for introducing financial and economic education in schools is also way off . Stop 'frozen' citizenship income in the case of short jobs. Also the increases in the staff of the Council of State, TAR and the Court of Auditors are out . Once the hypothesis of the transfer of the Alitalia decree has passed , the provision will have to proceed with a different procedure. Skip the extension of the Authority and that concerning the 21% flat rate for store rentals .

Here, in particular, the measures contained:
Ok for the facades bonus, skip the extension to the hotels
The ok to the facades bonus arrives but the tax discount will be only for the incomes of natural persons, therefore the extension to the hotels is skipped. An amendment to the maneuver approved by the Senate Budget Commission provides for this. The law establishes that for documented expenses, incurred, in the year 2020, relating to interventions, including those for cleaning only or external painting, aimed at recovering or restoring the external facade of existing buildings, a deduction from the gross tax of 90 %.

Plastic tax drops to 45 cents per kilo, the Tetrapak falls

Sugar tax sled in October
The sugar tax is postponed to the first of October 2020. The tax has a value of 10 cents per kilo. The correction on the disputed tax on sweetened drinks entails a lower revenue of 175.3 million.

Almost neatly narrowed on cars, it slides in July
The tightening on company cars that will start on the contracts stipulated from July 2020 on newly registered vehicles is easing. The fringe benefit drops to 25% on company cars, motorcycles and mopeds with CO2 emissions below 60 g / km and is 30% on those above 60 g / km and less than 160 g / km. For vehicles with polluting emissions of over 160 g / km and less than 190 g / km, the percentage rises to 40% in 2020 and rises to 50% from 2021 while for all cars over 190 g / km 50% is taken next year and 60% from 2021. The revision of the norm on company cars determines practically a zeroing of the expected revenues from the measure.

The excise clauses increase: 1.2 billion in 2021
Go-ahead for a new increase in the excise duty safeguard clauses on fuels with an increase in revenue of 303 million euros in 2021 and 651 in 2022.

The resources are intended to compensate for the lightening of the plastic tax and the sugar tax as well as the backtrack on company cars.

Fortune tax rises to 20%

The deduction for medical expenses has been confirmed
Healthcare costs can still be deducted from 19% without income restrictions. Therefore, the tightening on tax bonuses for high incomes, as foreseen by the budget bill, which only excluded only the interest charges for mortgage loans and the health expenses incurred for serious pathologies, is skipped.

The invoice discount is back with a 200 thousand euro work cut
The discount on the bill for the ecobonus is back but beyond the threshold of the amount of 200,000 euros for the works.
