The government has moved to increase sales of savings instruments by raising their interest rates and cutting taxes on profit, as sales marked a fall in the outgoing fiscal year.
A government committee has recommended raising the rate of interest on all types of savings instruments by 0.5 percent to 1 percent and cutting taxes on profit by 5 percent.
A seven-member committee led by Bangladesh Bank Deputy Governor Ziaul Hasan Siddiqui last week submitted the recommendations to the government.
The committee was formed in January to make recommendations after reviewing tax structure on various types of savings instruments.
In the current fiscal year, the rate of interest on various savings instruments was cut by 1 percent to 1.5 percent. On the other hand, 10 percent tax was imposed on the profit.
The committee recommended the rate of interest on Paribar Sanchaypatra at 12.05 percent from existing 11.04 percent, Pensioner Sanchaypatra at 11 percent from 11.80 percent now, and five-year Bangladesh Sanchaypatra at 11.55 percent from existing 10.5 percent.
The interest rate on three-year Sanchaypatra and Post Office Sanchaypatra will rise to 10.76 percent from existing 10.25 percent, and five-year Wage Earners' Development Bond to 11.80 percent from 10.5 percent now.
The committee said Paribar Sanchaypatra is now sold to women and the highest interest is paid on it considering the buyers' segment as a group lagging behind.
But as no socio-economic class is specified as to who will be able to buy those, the higher sales of Paribar Sanchaypatra are mainly confined to the middle and upper-class families, as they invest in this savings instrument through women.
The committee said, in future it should be specified to which socio-economic class this savings instruments will be sold. Besides, the committee members also felt tax should be imposed on these savings instruments.
Finance ministry officials said, under Strengthening Public Expenditure Management Programme they conducted a country-wide survey in December to know which classes of people purchase savings instruments.
The survey showed that 99.43 percent people made investment in the category of Tk one lakh or more. Of these, 82.59 percent opted for the range of Tk 5 lakh or more and 46 percent made investment in the category of Tk 15 lakh or above.
The study found that the investment coming through the savings instruments is not actually from the lower and lower middle classes. The high rate of interest given on these savings instruments is actually enjoyed by the middle and higher middle class people.
The committee also suggested re-evaluation of the savings instruments.
Of the existing 10 savings instruments and bonds, there is no tax imposed on five. Of the rest, tax is deducted at a rate of 10 percent on four and 20 percent tax is imposed on prize bonds.
The committee said the proposal made by it to increase the rate of interest will cost the government an additional Tk 60 crore.
A member of the committee said, if the rate of interest on savings instrument is raised excessively, it will increase the rate of interest on bank loans and deposits, and the government expenditure will go up.
So they have recommended fixing a pragmatic rate of interest, the member said.
