Finance minister Nirmala Sitharaman announced a big rollback on taxation asserting&nbsp;that there would be no surcharge on long and short term capital gain.

Addressing a press conference, the finance minister said GST returns will be simplified even further. Sitharaman added that there would be no&nbsp;surcharge for FPI and domestic investors in the market.&nbsp;"All pending GST refunds due to MSMEs till now shall be paid within 30 days from today," the finance minister informed.

The minister said that Angel&nbsp;tax provisions for startups will be removed.

"Tax assessment will become faceless and random." "It is wrong to say the government is harassing taxpayers," she said. The minister said 1400 prosecutions were withdrawn and sixteen offences have been moved to "monetary penalty".

"BS4 vehicles purchased up to March 2020 will all remain operational for their entire period of registration," the finance minister added.

"Banks have now decided to pass on any rate cut through MCLR reduction to benefit all borrowers. This will result in reduced EMIs for housing loans, vehicles and other retail loans, by directly linking repo rates to the interest rates," the finance minister.

"CSR violation is not a criminal offence," the finance minister said.&nbsp;

I-T notices will be through a centralised system,&nbsp;Sitharaman added.
