One of the measures pertaining to taxation announced by the Hon\u2019ble Finance Minister as part of the several measures to boost the economy, was the withdrawal of \u2018Angel Tax\u2019 provisions for Start-ups and their investors. As part of the measures for mitigating the genuine difficulties of Start-ups, it was decided that a dedicated cell would be set up under a Member of CBDT for addressing the specific problems of Start-ups.<\/strong><\/p>\n
