The two vehicles are referred to as Business Trust, and it has significant potential in achieving its targets of massive infrastructure development. These regimes were introduced in India recently.
The steps which helped in bring out the regimes are:
The changes which have been introduced In the INVETIS and REITS are as follows:
According to this bill, the new regime does not allow DDT-dividend distribution tax to be discontinued for the unit holders. However, it allows the business trust to be exempt from the tax on dividend income from a SPV.
According to the INVIT and REIT Regulations, an INVIT or REIT is permitted to have level holding structure, as the business trust holds the share in the SPV through a holding company. The Income Tax Act does not stop the multi-level structure from the applicability of DDT. The current bill abolishes Section 115O of the Act and introduces the section 80M of the Act .
This section provides for a deduction for dividends received by one domestic company from another domestic company. In light of the above, under the proposed provisions of the Bill, the holding company would be able to claim deduction for the dividends received from the SPV, resulting in reduction of its tax cost.
It can be concluded INVIT and REIT has been amended to increase the flow in the real estate and infrastructure sector. The amendments will help the sector to raise considerable amount of funds.
