hello everyone hi welcome to the channel of WallStreetmojo
[13]
watch the video till the end also if you are new to this channel then you can
[18]
subscribe us by clicking the bell icon friends or today we have a topic in
[22]
front of us that is double taxation what exactly double taxation is all about
[26]
let's try and understand this see as there's a dialogue box over here
[30]
it shows some information it says that when we pay when we pay income tax twice
[34]
on the same source of one income or the assets or the financial transactions
[39]
then the tax principles the taxation principle is known as the double
[43]
taxation principle which is known as double taxation
[46]
so this taxation principle you know may be applied at both you know at the
[50]
corporate level
[53]
as well as you know at the personal level also again when there is an
[58]
international trade and this Taxation is applied in two different countries like
[61]
for example you know corporate profits when earned are taxed as corporate tax
[65]
and then taxed again as the so called personal income so when it is
[69]
distributed as dividend among the stockholders and also in case of the
[72]
owner of the organization who is also the employer of the organization so if
[77]
they get taxed when he receives the salary so again if he receives the
[81]
dividend from the company being a shareholder in his to pay the tax and
[84]
the personal taxes but it so discussed the double taxation in corporation S
[89]
Corp and C Corps to corporations the principle of Taxation it affects the C
[95]
Corp corporations where the business profits are taxed both at the corporate
[101]
level and the personal level and double taxation in corporation must pay income
[106]
tax at a corporate level or the at the at
[114]
the corporate rate even before distributing the profit to the
[117]
shareholders but then the profit shared between the shareholders as the dividend
[120]
is taxed again at the recipients individual rate thus the corporate
[124]
profits are taxed twice so the double taxation in the
[129]
corporation is not affected by the taxation principle and a corporation
[133]
which passes through the earning directly to the shoulder without going
[136]
by the intermediate step of paying the dividends forth it is generally accepted
[141]
you know as a negative element
[145]
of the tax system and in order tax authorities they try and avoid it in the
[149]
possible situation so the taxation process they put puts the corporation at
[153]
the disadvantage you know when compared to the unincorporated businesses that
[158]
provides the incentive to corporations to use it at financing instead of you
[163]
know equity financing and then read and then retain earnings instead of
[166]
distributing among the shareholders whatever you know if corporate and
[169]
personal tax systems if they are integrated then their tax code is
[173]
simplified do I know
[178]
large extent you can see that now the tax results when the divided
[183]
when that when the dividend is given how the things are going to get affected see
[187]
the corporate level tax for the S Corp the taxable income is zero but for C
[191]
Corp it's 2 million for the marginal tax rate that's the maximum marginal
[194]
it's gone be 28% since it is zero there will be no tax that
[197]
will be charged but over here on 2 million 28% is gonna be
[200]
5,60 at the individual level it's gonna be the escort with the
[203]
company who's gonna get to charge so 2 million into 35% which is
[208]
the marginal rate for S Corp and the tax is gonna be 7,00,000 but over here
[211]
it's gonna be zero and the qualified dividend tax 15% zero in
[215]
this case but again 15% will be charged
[217]
to see corp or so have to avoid this kind of double taxation see there are several
[223]
ways you know for how to avoid the double taxation first you know the
[227]
smaller double taxation in in corporations most of the major
[231]
shareholders are you know you can say employees of the form and does you know
[235]
the earnings are distributed among the shareholders as so called wages fringe
[240]
benefits so for how to avoid the double taxation see although the employee is
[244]
liable to pay tax on their income the corporate deducted the wage and the
[249]
benefits paid as an expense of the company and thus the you know the avoid
[253]
paying corporate taxes on the amount second in case of the small business
[260]
the entire amount is distributed to the employees or the owners account and does
[264]
you know nothing is left which can be subjected to the corporate or tax right
[269]
and it in in situations when income is left with the business it has done so
[274]
for financing future growth of the company though the this amounts come
[278]
under the corporate tax this taxes are usually lower than the rate paid by
[284]
individuals forth there are large companies you know whose shareholders
[290]
are not are their employees and the earnings or corporate profits cannot be
[295]
distributed you know as wage or fringe benefits are often able to avoid double
[299]
taxation so this employees can be shown as the
[302]
tax consultant and as the payment to the consultant come under the tax deductible
[307]
business expense and dividend and another dividend so the shareholders in
[314]
this situation still pay tax on the compensation six it is also an option to
[319]
add the shareholders to the payroll you know as a member of the BOD that's a
[329]
board of director of the company so there are you know there are some tax
[332]
exempt
[336]
you know for the investor such as like you know our pension funds and charities
[343]
which are no significant their shareholders in the large corporation so this groups
[346]
have the tax-exempt status which helps them to avoid you know paying taxes on
[350]
their corporate dividends received now what about the International double
[354]
taxation C international business if you see they're often they often face the
[359]
issue of the taxation principle now their income gets taxed in the country
[363]
where it is earned right and then this income is again tax where
[369]
it is sent back to the business home country so in many cases the total tax
[376]
it becomes so high making pursuing international business as an impossible
[381]
and expensive venture so to avoid this kind of situations you know countries
[384]
all over the world have made 100 of double taxation treaties you know just
[389]
to avoid the double taxation which is based on the model given by the OECD
[395]
which is your Organisation for Economic Cooperation and Development so you know
[400]
mentioned in the double taxation treaty by the signatory nations you know they
[404]
are where they are the limit of the taxation of the international business
[406]
to help in trade between the two countries to avoid double taxation so
[410]
Indian position what is exactly the India's position on the double taxation
[413]
see India has comprehensive DTAA that is the double taxation avoidance agreement
[418]
with closely with 88 countries and of which 85 have already been put into
[424]
action so there are provisions in the Income Tax Act which provides relief to
[427]
the taxpayers and it helps to avoid double taxation so let us suppose that
[431]
the interest on the NRI bank deposits attracts let's say 30 percent right so
[437]
TDS in India so since India has signatory double taxation treaty with 88
[442]
countries so tax deducted maybe 10 to 15% instead of 30% so again many
[447]
foreign institutional investors will trade in Indian stock market they are
[450]
operating from Singapore to Mauritius India has a signatory double taxation
[455]
treaty with the Mauritius you know following which the capital gains from
[458]
the sale of the shares are taxable in the country of the residence only of the
[462]
shoulder and not in the country of the residence of the company whose shares
[464]
have been actually been sold so company residing in Mauritius selling shares of
[468]
the Indian company they need not pay tax in India and you
[472]
know since there is no capital gains tax in Mauritius the company avoids paying
[476]
any other altogether so whatever on a concluding end in the large countries
[481]
like India where the product product is transferred from one state to another it
[485]
is used to get taxed in various states and this that they get rid off of this
[490]
problem of the government India hasn't really introduced a thing called GST but
[493]
that's it for double taxation so that's it for this particular topic if you have
