Slashed corporate tax is a win-win for 130 crore Indians: PM Modi

New Delhi : Prime Minister Narendra Modi on Saturday praised Nirmala Sitharaman's decision to reduce corporate tax, calling it a 'win-win for 130 crore Indians'.

"The step to cut corporate tax is historic. It will give a great stimulus to #MakeInIndia, attract private investment from across the globe, improve competitiveness of our private sector, create more jobs and result in a win-win for 130 crore Indians," the PM tweeted soon after the Finance Minister announced steps to lift the sagging economy.

"The announcements in the last few weeks clearly demonstrate that our government is leaving no stone unturned to make India a better place to do business, improve opportunities for all sections of society and increase prosperity to make India a $5 Trillion economy," the PM wrote in two tweets.
