Not all the businesses have ample funds to start out their work trip, and that\u2019s where Angel investor comes into the image. Their role is providing much-needed funds to startups that are battling procuring adequate capital to kick starter their business operation. Such an investor examines the feasibility of the business idea of various startups then starts investing accordingly. Such investments are made against the equity or convertible debt, the return of ownership of the startups.<\/p>\n<h2><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"What_is_an_Angel_Tax_for_Startups\"><\/span><strong>What is an Angel Tax for Startups?<\/strong><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p>Angel Tax for Startups is usually mentioned because the tax payable on investment procured by the unlisted companies through the issuance of shares where the share price is seen in more than FMV (Fair Market Value) of the shares sold. the surplus realization is taken into account as income &amp; taxed accordingly.

This acts as a serious deterrent to investors who have an interest in investing extra money for the sake of an upper return.

This further forced the concerned parties to pay higher taxes than usual.<\/p>\n<p>Under Angel tax, the startups find themselves contributing a big part of their investment towards taxes. Furthermore, it also ends up being disruptive to the industry\u2019s growth. The stringent rate under this tax structure discourages investors from disbursing big funds to small firms. Angel tax has hampered the event of the startups, leaving the enthusiastic business owners dispirited.<\/p>\n<p>After getting feedback from the investment community, India\u2019s Government[1] has finally made some relevant amendments to the laws to form the tax structure less stringent to entrepreneurs and investors.<\/p>\n<h2><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"What_Amendments_did_the_Indian_Government_make_to_Angel_Tax_for_Startups\"><\/span><strong>What Amendments did the Indian Government make to Angel Tax for Startups?<\/strong><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p><strong>Following are the changes made by the Indian Government to regulate this chaotic situation:<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>The entity will still function startup if it doesn&#8217;t reap a turnover of quite 100 crores in any fiscal year . Previously the turnover limit was set at Rs 25 crore. this permits startups to thrive even more.<\/p>\n<p>The IT Department issues a notice regarding the waiver of angle tax for the startups, provided they satisfied the precise conditions.<\/p>\n<h2><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"What_are_the_Conditions_to_urge_Exempt_from_Angel_Tax\"><\/span><strong>What are the Conditions to urge Exempt from Angel Tax?<\/strong><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p>Following are the conditions that the startups should meet to avail exemption regarding the angel tax:<\/p>\n<p>The paid-up capital &amp; the firm\u2019s share premium must not surpass the max- limit of Rs 10 crore after the issuance of the shares.<\/p>\n<p>The startup must seek assistance from certified merchant bankers for the calculation of the market price.<\/p>\n<p>The mini. net worth of the investor shouldn&#8217;t be but Rs 2 crore.
