AMID concerns around the rising cost of living, all tax resident individuals in Singapore will get a personal income tax rebate of 50 per cent for the year of assessment 2024.
The amount will be capped at S$200 so that the benefits go mostly to middle-income workers, said Finance Minister Lawrence Wong in his Budget speech in Parliament on Friday (Feb 16).
The rebate is expected to cost the government S$350 million.
