cover ;; Chairman of the National Board of Revenue (NBR) Abu Hena Rahmatul Munim has said that the current year's return filing will not be matched.
NBR's chairman said that the returns have been submitted till November 26, 13 lakh 20 thousand.
The tax paid is 2 thousand 387 crores. However, despite our capacity, the desired level of য় is not yet to be achieved.
He said these things at a press conference on the occasion of ‘month-long tax service and celebrating the National Day-2020’ on Sunday (November 29) at the conference room of NBR.
Abu Hena Rahmatul Munim said, "The last chance to submit the return is till November 30. Those who cannot give the returns on the scheduled time, they can apply to the concerned tax office. However, the two percent fine poison is not mandatory. The customer could not submit the return on the right basis. If the penalty is given, the fine will be waived to the Commissioner. Because it doesn't feel logical, but the customer has to pay a fine.
He said, it is mandatory for TIN holders to give returns, if not, they will have to pay a fine.
According to the Act, the taxpayer may pay two standards in accordance with the application of the Taxpayer, but the taxpayer will have to pay a fine of two percent.
When asked about the fact that many taxpayers could not pay taxes in the same way for the coronavirus (COVID-19), they are demanding to be equal, he said, "During the disaster, the disaster is not a matter of 2019). The situation is not long lasting, but Covid-19 has been a disease this year. It is a disease that has been accepted by the world for one year. However, our activities are not going away from business to daily activities. Although there is a little difficulty. If anyone is interested, they can apply to the Commissioner for them. The Commissioner is told to give the same application as per the application. However, the fine is not a mentor, it will be relied on the Commissioner. However, the penalty poison should be seen in the same way.
He said, "As a large part of those who have submitted the returns earlier, or the TIN holder, will not submit the returns, then when the notice goes, you will feel fine. But there is no benefit for them. According to the law, what is in the return law will be done if the return is not submitted.
This has not happened before, this time we have made it mandatory.
When asked whether the return submission process will be made easy, he said, the return of the return will be made easier This is being done for those who will return one page application form and pay the correct taxes how to get everyone.
Chairman Abu Hena Rahmatul Munim said, "Our total number of taxpayers of TIN is 50 lakh 72 thousand 567. As of last Thursday (November 26), the number of returns filed till last Thursday (November 26) is 13 lakh 20 thousand 825. Last year it was 12 lakh 57 thousand 626 and the tax paid with the return was 2 thousand 487 taka which was 3 thousand 580 taka last year.
