Tax Alert - Targeted tax measures address fuel and restructuring costs 

Recent legislative changes introduce targeted VAT and income tax measures aimed at easing pressure points across the economy. On the indirect tax front, amendments to the VAT Act provide time‑bound relief on fuel, signalling a short‑term intervention designed to cushion costs while broader fiscal considerations remain in play.

At the same time, proposed changes to the Income Tax Act point to potential relief for internal group reorganisations, addressing long‑standing tax consequences that can arise even where ownership does not change in substance. Taken together, the VAT and income tax proposals suggest a deliberate, impact‑focused approach, raising important considerations for businesses and corporate groups alike.
