Summary

It has been reported that the national tax revenue for the fiscal year 2025 is expected to reach approximately 80.7 trillion yen. This increase is attributed to wage hikes and strong corporate earnings, raising the initial estimate by about 2.9 trillion yen and ensuring that it will exceed 80 trillion yen for the first time. This outcome continues to reflect a record high in tax revenue over the past six years, and it is anticipated that fiscal management will continue to face challenges, including the potential issuance of additional government bonds.

Admin’s Note

It’s very interesting to note that tax revenue for the fiscal year 2025 is expected to exceed 80 trillion yen for the first time, largely due to wage increases and improved corporate earnings. The fact that this will mark the sixth consecutive year of record highs suggests that the economy is on a recovery trend. However, despite the increase in tax revenue, there are concerns about the continued tough fiscal management. It will be important to watch what kind of economic measures will be implemented in the future.
