The Ministry of Commerce encourages the electrical business logistics to "increase the business" to puzzle

November 12, the Ministry of Commerce, chaired the national Trade and Logistics Conference held in Beijing.

The National Business Department has more than 100 people to attend the meeting, some provinces and cities in charge of commercial and logistics work made an exchange of speeches, and visited Beijing City 100 and logistics China two logistics enterprises.

Jiang, Vice minister of Commerce, put forward six key tasks of doing business logistics: first, to strengthen the construction of logistics standardization; the other is to improve the level of logistics informatization; The third is to encourage the development of professional and socialized logistics; four is to actively crack the problem of restricting the development of urban distribution; Six is to implement the various support policies. The tax burden on logistics enterprises has increased by almost one-fold after the increase of the battalion (sales tax), and officials have disclosed in the survey that there may be a tax return, which is still uncertain. Mr. Li, general manager of the third party logistics Enterprise, who is concerned about the trade and Logistics Conference.

"The increase is an established fact and the general direction is not easily changed," said one person who attended the meeting. ”

Electrical business and logistics have a war

One of the six priorities proposed by Jiang is to encourage the development of specialization and socialization of logistics, which includes encouraging the development of E-commerce based on E-commerce platform, will be online under the combination of e-business logistics.

E-commerce logistics, electrical and logistics enterprises are both an opportunity, but also a challenge. In these two years, the electric business self-logistics opened to the traditional business logistics is not a small impact.

2010 Ma Yun's most important decision is to do logistics, and then he and partners spent billions of dollars to build a logistics platform. With the Beijing-East, when, excellence in Amazon, Macaulay, and every guest ... Have invested in this round of development tide.

E-commerce companies Crazy Cross-border first triggered the uproar of the courier company.

2010 China Post with Tom's pro-tillage business, "Mail Music Network" on-line, the April 2011 Railway Express to create a public network trading platform "Express Mall" officially run. After the domestic "three-up" (Yuantong, Shentong, Zhong Tong, Rhyme Tatsu), as well as Shun Fung Express and many other private courier are involved in E-commerce.

In Mr Li's view, since the construction of logistics and social logistics, in the future there will be a war, the last two years the competition will be more intense. However, he is not particularly optimistic about the electrical business of the proprietary logistics, "the electrical business that they do very stable, but the self-logistics this piece, in addition to Alibaba, I am not optimistic about others." Because Alibaba does is the brand, it integrates a lot of enterprises on the platform to do together, can turn logistics into profits, but other electric business is different. "said Mr. Lee. He believes that the electrical business should still put more energy into the main business.

Even if, as in the case of Jingdong, large-scale investment in the national logistics, but also only to achieve the warehousing self-management, distribution self-management, trunk and feeder transport or outsourcing.

In fact, logistics is not the main business of the electrical business, it can be said that all the electricity dealers are losing money. Over the long term, if the logistics investment in more funds, then the electronic business platform will eventually be tired of logistics.

The problem of "battalion change and increase" is difficult to solve

"Battalion to increase" to the logistics enterprises to say very suddenly, January 1, 2012, Shanghai, the first in the transport industry and some modern services industry formally implemented sales tax trial. August 1, 2012, the pilot scope expanded to Beijing, Jiangsu, Zhejiang, Guangdong and other 10 provinces and cities. From August 1, 2013, the camp was promoted to the nationwide logistics industry.

According to the general taxpayer standard, the transportation industry adopts the 11% VAT rate in lieu of the tax rate of 3% in the past, while the warehousing, distribution and freight forwarders use the 6% VAT rate instead of the tax rate of 5% of the past business tax. The main purpose of "battalion is to increase" is to reduce the cost of logistics industry, but after the implementation, the logistics cost is increased almost one times.

Among them, the deduction item is few, the deduction condition is rigorous is the problem which the logistics enterprise generally reflects.

"The items that are now deductible are mainly oil charges, fixed asset procurement and vehicle maintenance costs, but the fixed asset requirements can only be used for the next year deduction, we picked up a number of vehicles last year, can not be used for this year's deduction, but vehicle procurement cannot be carried out annually, I am afraid that within a few years can not enjoy the tax deduction. In addition, the maintenance costs of vehicles are difficult to obtain value-added tax invoices, downstream steam repair plant to open value-added tax invoices can, but we have to make up the cost of their own, or wool out of the sheep. "said Mr. Lee.

For logistics companies, mainly can be used to offset the vehicle refueling costs, generally can obtain value-added tax tickets, oil costs accounted for the logistics company operating costs of 15%―20%, overall or small head. For some local logistics companies, gas stations only in the unified procurement to open value-added tax tickets, but also increased the difficulty of deduction.

It is understood that the relevant departments in the previous survey had said, know that there may be defects, but the enterprise still have to pay taxes, later may do some supplementary policy, and then back to the enterprise. But how to retreat, what standard retreat, has not been said.
