The tax refund policy for dual-creative talents is specially formulated by Beijing Municipal Government to attract senior management and technical talents for Beijing software enterprises. Among many preferential policies, only this policy is directly linked to the personal economic interests of employees in software enterprises.
When more and more software talents begin to enjoy the preferential treatment brought by this policy, a recent survey by Beijing Software Industry Promotion Center shows that some preferential policies including this policy need to be adjusted accordingly. Some insiders speculate that the new incentive policy will be officially released as soon as this year.
In fact, as early as February 20001year, the Beijing Municipal Government issued the Opinions on Implementing the State Council's Policy of Encouraging the Development of Software Industry and Integrated Circuit Industry.
In this implementation opinion, Article 18 of the first part of the software industry policy stipulates that special awards will be given to the senior managers and technicians of software enterprises recognized by the Beijing Municipal Science and Technology Commission, which will be used for "double-high talents" to purchase commercial houses and cars for the first time in Beijing, invest in Beijing high-tech enterprises in cash, or increase capital investment for the enterprises. The highest reward standard is 80% of the personal wage income tax paid by me last year.
To apply for the special award of double-high talents in Beijing software enterprises, the following conditions should be met: a manager with a bachelor's degree or above holds the position of department manager in an enterprise, with an annual salary of more than 654.38+10,000 yuan (including 654.38+10,000 yuan) and continuous service time of more than 1 year (including 1 year); A senior technician refers to a technician with a bachelor's degree or above or a senior professional title, with an annual salary of more than 654.38+10,000 yuan (including 654.38+10,000 yuan) and a continuous length of service of more than 1 year (including 1 year).
Recently, entrusted by Beijing Science and Technology Commission, Beijing Software Industry Promotion Center and Beijing Municipal Bureau of Statistics conducted a large-scale survey on Beijing software industry. After analyzing the present situation of Beijing's software industry, they put forward a proposal to reduce the financial subsidy amount of this incentive policy, which has been submitted to relevant departments for approval.
Dr. Wu Jianmin, the project leader, told the reporter: "The preferential policies issued by the Beijing Municipal Government are mainly to encourage more senior management talents and technical talents to work in software enterprises in Beijing. At present, the same policy has not been seen in other cities. "
The survey shows that the annual salary100000 yuan as the measurement standard of talents with double heights can no longer adapt to the current development form, that is to say, the threshold of annual salary100000 yuan needs to be raised. However, how much and when to implement it need the final decision of Beijing Science and Technology Commission, Finance Bureau and Personnel Bureau.
It is reported that the funds for tax refund are not from the state, but from Beijing's local fiscal revenue. One of the benefits of raising the threshold is self-evident, that is, it can alleviate the huge financial expenditure of the Beijing Municipal Bureau of Finance.
According to the data, in 2006, 690 senior managers and technicians from 5438+0,56 software enterprises won awards, and the reward amount was * * *16.262 million yuan. In 2002, this figure reached 63.647 million yuan, an increase of nearly four times. In 2003, the amount of this award for double-high talents in Beijing has reached 1. 1 billion yuan.
However, what do enterprises think of this? Large software companies hope to increase the annual salary of tax refund personnel, which they think can better motivate real senior talents to develop in enterprises. On the other hand, raising the threshold for SMEs means that most employees in enterprises will not be able to continue to enjoy this preferential policy.
Although the number of large software enterprises is not as large as that of small and medium-sized enterprises, their operating income far exceeds that of small and medium-sized software enterprises. Wu Jianmin believes that the policy should be tilted towards these large software companies.
From the national point of view, the support for domestic software enterprises has been increasing. So does the suggestion of narrowing the scope of tax rebate put forward by Beijing Software Industry Promotion Center mean that Beijing should reduce its support for software enterprises?
The survey conducted by Beijing Software Industry Promotion Center for Beijing Science and Technology Commission shows that the development speed of Beijing software enterprises is very fast. In 2003, the output value of Beijing software enterprises reached 38.5 billion yuan, accounting for 34% of the whole country. 5 14 new software enterprises, with a total of10.08 million, accounting for 20.4% of the country; But at the same time, national and regional governments have invested billions of dollars.
Document No.47 (18) issued by the General Office of the State Council in September, 2002 proposed that by 2005, the central financial budget will invest no less than 4 billion yuan in the software industry. Among them, the "863" special funds for the development of electronic information industry, the funds for the national key scientific and technological projects, the funds for industrial technology research and development, and the funds for technological innovation of small and medium-sized scientific and technological enterprises can be used for the development of the software industry, of which the special funds for the software industry are not less than 3 billion yuan. At the same time, from 2003 to 2005, the central government allocated 654.38 billion yuan to support the development of software industry.
Wu Jianmin believes that the support attitude of national and regional governments to the software industry has not changed, and the intensity will not be reduced, but the focus will be adjusted. In the future, Beijing Science and Technology Commission will increase its support for key areas, including independent basic software platform development, software outsourcing and export, and digital content products. In addition, we will focus on developing industrial application software, information security products and services, and embedded software to further build a software industry base.
The policy is always in constant adjustment, and its adjustment will always attract attention.
"Policy means not only protection and support, but also guidance and restriction. The government's support policies will be more targeted in the future. " Wu Jianmin said.
