Franchise Tax Plan Dropped in Indiana Tax Reform Bid
INDIANAPOLIS AP The House Ways and Means Committee dropped its proposed franchise tax on businesses and replaced it with an additional business income tax in the tax reform plan. The package aims to raise over 350 million annually to fund property tax relief and state spending, while reducing the corporate gross income tax by five percent and adding a 3 percent separate adjusted gross tax with deductions for state taxes. The move follows opposition from business groups to the franchise tax proposal.
