Mainland China

1.  China will gradually accelerate property-tax reform this year as part of a general fiscal overhaul plan approved yesterday by the State Council, or Cabinet. The NDRC has just clarified the issue of property-tax reform. It denied a report last week citing a commission research fellow as saying China won't introduce a real-estate tax for at least 3 years. The property tax refers to duties levied on properties for lease or investment instead of for buyers' live-in residences. Tax in China is now only imposed during home sales and a property-ownership tax is regarded by analysts as one of the most effective ways to curb speculation in real estate. During an interview with Xinhua news agency, the commission said it was working on a plan designed to promote the healthy development of China's property market. The proposal is part of the 12th Five-Year Plan and will be released in the 2nd half of 2011. In yesterday's document there were no details of how the country would gradually accelerate property-tax reform. Shanghai's plan to begin a property tax in residential real estate has been submitted to the Central Government for review, according to yesterday's China Securities Journal. Shanghai may impose the tax on people with residential areas exceeding 70 sq m each, or a household with more than 200 sq m of living space, it said. The city may also impose duties on people without residential permits and those who don't file income-tax declarations for 3 years or more, the journal said. Shanghai was working on "stricter" rules than the Central Government's to cool its property market, Chen Qiwei, a spokesman for the Shanghai Municipal Government, said last week. (Shanghai Daily).
