The Minister of Economy, Luis Caputo, A new increase in fiscal collection in real terms will be recorded in April, in the hands of the income provided by the Profit tax, According to several consultants.
The iArgentine Fiscal Analysis (Iaraf), the Argentine Political Economy Center (CEPA) and Politikon Chaco they estimated that the income generated by the Value Added Tax (VAT) fell 1.4% while the tax on Profits rose 32.5%.
The big difference is that Due to the tax reform of 2024 this year the employees of gross wages from $ 2.28 million are paying gain, that in 2024 they did not pay. On the other hand, the economic activity of the first four -month period of 2025 is higher, which generates greater tax collection in general.

In February and March 2025, the Recovery of economic activity in interannual comparison promoted an increase in VAT collection. However, in April 2025, he fell again despite the low comparison base.
As for profits from November, year -on -year increases are exhibited due to the restitution of the Impost to the fourth category of the fiscal package which added about 800,000 employees who had stopped paying in 2023.
In that sense, the Iaraf notes that “together the VAT and profits collection would have registered a real year -on -year rise of 9%.” “In the accumulated of the first four months of the year of the sum of these taxes, The real interannual variation would have been positive for 12.3%, ”says the consultant directed by Nadin Argañaraz.
For its side, Politikon Chaco also estimated that the collection of internal taxes presented a decrease of 17.7% but the other co -participated subiers 26.7%. The resources derived from the Fuel tax with 54.7% and monotax, 110.1%.
With this, the Government is managing to compensate for the loss of resources that generated the loss of validity of the country tax that last year contributed 1.1% of GDP.
In that sense, next Monday, May 5, the Customs Collection and Control Agency (ARCA) will publish the result of national collection, which also includes social security resources
