The Finance Minister announced an investment-linked tax incentive scheme for farm produce and warehouses in the Union Budget. The scheme proposes that all capital expenditure to build and operate such facilities would be fully eligible for small business tax deductions. Business expenditures on land, goodwill and financial instruments would not be eligible for the deductions, said LiveMint.com.

The proposal is aimed at reducing waste of perishables and attracting investment into the sector. The scheme was welcomed as a big boost to the cold chain and warehousing sector. Currently, small businesses are eligible for a subsidy and the Income Tax Act allows several exemptions and deductions. These, however, are not sufficient to invite investment. порно xxx
