Summary

The bill changes New Hampshire’s business profits tax so that companies can immediately deduct up to $2.5 million for qualifying property placed in service on or after Jan 1 2027, up from the current $500,000 limit. It applies to all business organizations that claim the Section 179 deduction under RSA 77‑A.
