AI Summary

This bill aims to gradually reduce Maryland's corporate income tax rate from 8.25% to 6.25% over five consecutive tax years, beginning with the tax year starting after December 31, 2024. Specifically, the corporate tax rate will be 8.25% for the 2025 tax year, then decrease to 7.75% for the 2026 tax year, 7.25% for the 2027 tax year, 6.75% for the 2028 tax year, and finally reach 6.25% for the 2029 tax year and onwards. This phased reduction is designed to improve the state's economic competitiveness by lowering the tax burden on corporations, potentially making Maryland more attractive for business investment and growth. The bill will take effect on July 1, 2025, allowing businesses to plan for the gradual tax rate reductions in the coming years.
