To discuss the issue of tax on electricity dealers, first of all we have to find out why the original electricity business is not taxed. The answer is: The beginning of China's e-commerce business mainly for the Consumer-to-consumer platform of small and medium sellers, this part of the shop in the early days, due to the small size, and most of the personal shop, so long has not been included in the tax category. and the country in order to encourage the development of e-commerce, for such a tax-free small and medium-sized shops (c shop) on the relaxation of the policy, so this model of the merchant enjoyed more than 10 years of the electricity quotient dividend.
