Increase the annual tax threshold for individual income tax from Rs. 1.2 million to Rs. 2.4 million and revise the tax rates and tax brackets on a fair basis.

Why this status

Partly delivered. The 2025 Inland Revenue amendment increased personal relief from Rs. 1.2 million to Rs. 1.8 million and revised income-tax bands from April 2025, but it did not reach the Rs. 2.4 million annual threshold promised in the manifesto.
