Income Tax
Q. This year, my company employed someone who had recently been employed at another company. However, the employee did not provide a P45. How do we calculate the Income Tax?
Either apply the threshold on a week-one/month-one basis, or no tax-free income should be given. Rather, the full emoluments should be taxed at 25%. Advise the person to file a return at the end of the year, to see if a refund is due.
