The extension of the reduction of the Irpef rate from 43 to 33% for incomes between 50 thousand and 60 thousand euros, as hypothesized by the government, would reduce the withdrawal by one hundred euros for every thousand of taxable earnings, up to a maximum of 1,000 euros. The benefit, for the progressive Irpef mechanism, could be extended beyond this threshold even if it is possible that the government decides to sterilize it for the highest incomes, as it did with the last budget, or to insert a ceiling.
This is the calculation of the tax savings, made by Il Sole 24 Ore online which would derive from the new Irpef modification being studied for the 2027 budget. In practice the advantage would start from 100 euros to 51 thousand euros of income, would rise by 100 euros for every additional thousand euros and would reach a thousand euros at 60 thousand. From 60 thousand euros onwards, in the absence of corrective measures, the tax savings would stabilize at 1,000 euros per year. For this measure, the business daily hypothesizes, the government would need around 2.7 billion euros of coverage. According to data from the Department of Finance, there are over one million Irpef taxpayers between 50 and 60 thousand euros of income: in this income range there are approximately 620 thousand employees and 390 thousand pensioners. Without a cap, the potentially affected taxpayers would instead reach around 3.3 million.
