India's 2026-27 budget changes MAT to a final tax, cuts rate to 14%, and allows limited credit use for firms switching to 22% tax regime.
India’s 2026-27 Union Budget introduces a major overhaul of the Minimum Alternate Tax (MAT), effective April 1, 2026, making MAT a final tax with no future credit carry-forwards.
The MAT rate is reduced from 15% to 14%, and companies switching to the new 22% corporate tax regime can use up to 25% of their annual tax liability to offset pre-existing MAT credits.
Non-resident entities under presumptive taxation for electronics manufacturing income are exempt from MAT.
The reform aims to simplify tax compliance, improve cash flow predictability, and encourage migration to the lower-rate regime, though firms staying under the old system may face higher effective tax costs if profitable.
