In the first two months of 2026, income tax revenues to the consolidated budget of Tatarstan decreased by 24%.

      The Deputy Minister of Finance of the Republic also announced an increase in tax debt. In the consolidated budget of Tatarstan, 84.5 billion rubles of tax and non-tax revenues were received in the first two months of this year. This was reported at a press conference by the Deputy Minister of Finance of the Republic, Alla Anfimova, as noted by KazanFirst. According to her, of this amount, 71.1 billion rubles went to the republic's budget, and another 13.4 billion to local budgets. Anfimova added that revenues to the consolidated budget of the republic increased by 0.5 billion rubles (by 0.6%) compared to the same period last year. The personal income tax (PIT) became the "main driver" of the budget's revenue part, writes KazanFirst. In the first two months of 2026, this tax brought in 29.6 billion rubles, which is 5.3 billion rubles more than the previous year. At the same time, Anfimova reported that corporate profit tax revenues for the two months amounted to 17.8 billion rubles — 5.6 billion rubles (or 24%) less than the previous year. The most noticeable decline by sectors was recorded in the oil and gas sector — by 4.7 billion rubles (−47%). The Deputy Minister of Finance of the Republic also announced an increase in tax debt. According to her, tax debt increased by 10% over the year and reached 12.88 billion rubles by March 1, 2026. About half of this amount is attributed to bankrupt enterprises. Anfimova specified that the debt on corporate profit tax increased by 504.5 million rubles (+11%), on PIT — by 324.9 million rubles (+10%), and on the simplified taxation system — by 206.3 million rubles (+41%). KazanFirst reminded that "throughout the year, the authorities repeatedly pointed to the decline in corporate profit tax." The Minister of Finance of Tatarstan, Marat Faizrakhmanov, previously stated that the decline most affected oil production. The Director of Strategy at Finam Investment Company, Yaroslav Kabakov, told KazanFirst that the decrease in corporate profit tax in Tatarstan reflects "the deterioration of financial results in key sectors, primarily oil and gas and petrochemicals." Kabakov did not rule out that the republic might end 2026 with a deficit if the current dynamics of revenues and expenditures continue, and if corporate profit tax does not begin to recover.
