LAHORE: The Lahore High Court (LHC) has admitted a petition for regular hearing filed against Voluntary Tax Amnesty Scheme (VTAS).
In his plea, Advocate Sheraz Zaka said that the government introduced VTAS for traders which is totally unjustified. Zaka said that this scheme protects the tax evaders and discourages regular tax filers.
