50% tax exemption on rent should be given to tenants, not landlords, says RISM
PETALING JAYA (Oct 27): It will be more appropriate if the government granted the 50% tax exemption to tenants as they are the party in need of assistance, instead of rewarding landlords with the Budget 2018 measure to halve tax on rental income, said the Property Management, Valuation and Estate Agency Surveying (PMVS) Division of the Royal Institution Of Surveyors Malaysia (RISM) in a statement today.
