The rebate is capped at $200.
Singaporeans will get a 50% personal income tax rebate capped at $200 for 2024 due to concerns over the cost of living.
During his budget delivery, Deputy Prime Minister Lawrence Wong said the move, which will benefit middle-class income workers, will cost the government $350m.
Aside from this, the government will increase the annual income threshold for dependent-related reliefs to $8,000 by 2025.
This is double the current threshold for dependent-related reliefs which stands at $4,000.
