\nThe Chief Commissioner said that the aim behind holding online court is the resolution of the problems of taxpayers at their doorsteps. He was of the view that online court is the best forum between the tax collectors and taxpayers. So, he urged the taxpayers to come to the forefront to directly inform them about their problems and hardships.
\nThe taxpayers showed keen interest in the proceeding of the open court and put on various questions relating to various taxes and their collection. The Chief Commissioner and his team satisfied the participants through their answers.
\nTo a question about the expiry of the tax exemption in tribal districts on June 30, 2023, the Chief Commissioner said that it is a policy matter, which comes in the ambit of the federal government and parliament and saying anything in this regard is premature.
\nHowever, he said that the matter has already been sent to the higher authorities of the Federal Board of Revenue (FBR), which is a suitable forum for taking appropriate decisions in this regard.
\nA taxpayer from Mardan appreciated the holding of lucky draws in connection with Persons of Sales (POS) and said that the initiative will help expand the tax net.
\nHe assured the taxpayer that their proposals in this regard would be dispatched to FBR and whatever decision taken by it would be shared with the taxpayers.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
