Summary of Baijiu consumption tax reform and influence

Current situation: China's consumption tax began with the tax system reform in 1994, and its proportion is stable at present. From the Baijiu industry point of view, the consumption tax has undergone many reforms and tightened regulation. At present, the Chinese Baijiu consumption tax is levied in the production process, and the ad valorem method of ad valorem + quantity is adopted. The proportion of tax rate is 20%, and the fixed duty rate is 0.5 yuan /500g. This work report does not mention consumption tax.

Outlook: 1) Baijiu consumption tax rate is stable, and there is a probability of adjusting the tax base. In the category of consumption tax collection in China, besides Baijiu products, liquor consumption tax rate is relatively high. Based on the government work report of the past two years, we proposed that we should optimize and implement the tax reduction policy and introduce a number of policy measures to reduce taxes and reduce taxes. We believe that the 20% increase in the consumption tax rate in the short term can be less effective, and there is a probability of tax base adjustment. 2) The collection link is moved backward for a short time or difficult, and the overall reform of high-end famous and high-quality wines has little impact. Since the Baijiu channel system is more complex, we think it is more difficult to move back in the short term. If we implement the consumption tax reform, the high-end and high-end liquor companies with strong brand strength will further squeeze the survival space of the low end liquor companies, which will further enhance the concentration of the industry.
