We collect daily data on 340 stocks listed on the Taiwan Stock Market from 2016 to 2018, and employ difference-in-differences estimators to analyze the impacts of the tax cut and its subsequent extension on market quality and transaction tax revenue. The results suggest an increase in market liquidity following the implementation of the tax cut. While the tax cut promoted day-trading transactions, it failed to promote non-day-trading transactions. Simultaneously, the introduction of the policy was associated with an increase in market volatility. As to the extension period of the tax cut policy in 2018, there was no additional boosting effect on market liquidity, while the increase in volatility persisted. Regarding the impact on tax revenues, our findings suggest an overall increase in securities transaction tax revenue following the initiation of the tax cut policy. However, the daily average securities transaction tax revenue during the extended period was lower compared to that recorded in the initial year of the tax cut phase, indicating potential tax losses during the extended period of the tax cut.
