VAT tax cuts will directly benefit manufacturing companies, especially high-end manufacturing and technology innovation companies.

Manufacturing VAT

With the declining domestic macroeconomic situation and the requirements for upgrading the ceramic industry, the ceramics industry has also faced a series of difficulties in recent years. Among them, the most obvious are overcapacity and pressure from environmental supervision. The advancement of ceramics manufacturing towards intelligentization has become a development trend of building ceramics enterprises.

Therefore, environmental protection, intelligence, and green manufacturing have become the focus of transformation and upgrading of the ceramic industry in recent years. The tax incentives for the VAT reform of equipment manufacturing have also further promoted the development of this industry.

In addition, in the list of big taxpayers, the contribution of manufacturing companies still dominates. In areas where the ceramic manufacturing industry is relatively concentrated, there is no shortage of enterprises that pay taxes exceeding 100 million yuan. Every year, the government also returns some taxes and fees as bonuses for big taxpayers. Ceramic companies can also apply for smart technology to apply for innovative technology companies, but they can also get some tax deductions.
