The bill would implement a recommendation in the report, "Reduce General Revenue Loss from Sales Tax Discounts" in the Legislative Budget Board's Government Effectiveness and Efficiency Report submitted to the Eighty-second Texas Legislature, 2011. The bill would amend Section 151.423, Tax Code, to increase the timely filer discount from 0.5 percent to 0.75 percent and establish $3,750 as the maximum dollar amount per year that any one retailer could retain for the timely filing of sales tax based on the state portion of the remittance. The cap would be $312 per month for monthly filers and $937 per quarter for quarterly filers.
