Relates to calculation of franchise tax on businesses with a business income base over five million dollars

This bill increases the franchise tax rate for large businesses in New York. Specifically, it raises the tax to 9% of business income base for taxable years beginning on or after January 1, 2025, for businesses with an annual business income base exceeding $5 million. The change modifies existing tax law to apply this higher rate starting in 2025, replacing a previous 7.25% rate that applied from 2021 through 2024. This directly affects corporations and businesses meeting the $5 million income threshold in the state.
