SIALKOT: The Federal Board of Revenue (FBR) has ordered all the Regional Tax Offices (RTOs) to achieve the set revenue collection target before the end of the current fiscal year.
On the instructions of FBR Chairman Nisar Mohammad Khan, a letter has been sent to all field formations to expedite the tax recovery efforts and take actions against the tax defaulters in order to meet the target.
Following orders, the RTOs officials are striving hard, besides guiding the traders about Voluntary Tax Compliance Scheme in order to bring the non-filers in to tax net, officials said, adding that new taxpayers could play an important role in economic development of the country.
On the other hand, another strategy was being adopted to trap the non-taxpayers in the region in which a network of informers will be developed. If any person informed FBR about tax evaders, the department will not only keep his name confidential but also award him a cash prize.
