Also the recent corporate tax relaxation in hotel accommodation, the tourism sector would be boosted tremendously," he said.Deb said that following the recent huge corporate tax relaxation, Union government would lose tax revenue of Rs 1.42 lakh crore, but Rs 7 lakh crore to Rs 8 lakh crore would be infused in the market and the country's economy would be boosted."With the guidance of Prime Minister Narendra Modi, following the announcement of the corporate tax relaxation by the Union Finance Minister, the foreign companies and investors would also be encouraged to invest in India," he added.According to the Chief Minister, after the recent reduction, the corporate tax in India is the lowest in the world and it would attract huge foreign investment in the country.Deb, who also holds the Industries and Commerce Department, claimed that there are huge scopes to invest in rubber, tea, bamboo and small scale industries sector in Tripura and the skill development mission has been working on the same directions."A small instance I can give you how Tripura's youths, who were job seekers, are now becoming job creators.
