Angel Taxation

Angel taxation refers to the imposition of taxes on investments made by angel investors in startups or early-stage companies. It is a controversial tax policy that aims to prevent money laundering and tax evasion but has been criticized for hindering investment in innovative ventures. Angel taxation typically involves assessing the fair market value of shares issued by startups and taxing any premium amount received above the fair market value as income. This tax has been a subject of debate due to its potential negative impact on startup funding and entrepreneurial ecosystem.
