Introduction
The Draft Finance Bill, 2025, was released on 30th April 2025 and subsequently gazetted on 6th May 2025. While we had earlier provided a detailed analysis of the draft Bill, we have now reviewed and compared it with the gazetted version.
Our review indicates that there are no major changes between the two versions. Nevertheless, we have identified a few specific differences, which we outline in this release by reference to various tax laws.
