🇲🇬 Madagascar
Madagascar applies the IRSA (Impot sur les Revenus Salariaux et Assimiles) with 6 brackets from 0% to 25%. The first 350,000 MGA/month (4,200,000 MGA/year) is exempt, and the top rate of 25% applies to monthly income above 4,000,000 MGA (48,000,000 MGA/year) under the 2026 Finance Law (Loi 2025-021). The IRSA is computed on gross salary minus employee contributions: CNaPS pension at 1% and medical (OSTIE) at 1%, each deductible and capped at 2,400,000 MGA/month (28,800,000 MGA/year). Antananarivo is the main economic centre.

What the calculation reproduces, what it does not model
The CNaPS and OSTIE ceilings are the monthly contribution ceiling published by CNaPS, 2,400,000 MGA a month (28,800,000 MGA a year), equal to 8 times the minimum hiring wage of 300,000 MGA in force since 1 March 2026 for the general non-agricultural scheme; the previous ceiling of 2,101,440 MGA applied until 28 February 2026. Both contributions are deducted from the IRSA base under article 01.03.09 of the Code des impots (paragraph 1 for pension, within 10% of gross pay; paragraph 2 for health cover, within 2% of gross pay); at 1% each, neither limit binds. The minimum perception of 3,000 MGA a month (article 01.03.16, applied above the 350,000 MGA monthly exemption) and the per-dependant reduction of 2,000 MGA a month (article 01.03.19) are modelled, the reduction being applied before the minimum as that article requires. The code sets no maximum number of dependants, so the reduction is uncapped. Not modelled: the rounding of the base down to the lower hundred Ariary (article 01.03.16), and the agricultural scheme, whose ceiling is 2,434,400 MGA a month.
