This act raises the tax credit rate for conglomerates from 15% to 20% and for small and medium-sized businesses from 25% to 30% for investments in national strategic industries, including semiconductors. Additionally, the act extends the period for research and development tax credits for new technologies and national strategic technologies by five years to 2029, and for semiconductors by seven years to 2031. The new measures will take effect upon their promulgation.
