conditions, the country passing through right now.<br \/>\nAfter the passage of the budget, we will conduct a survey of sugar mills with the provincial governments, Azhar said and added the crackdown will be launched against those, who will be found involved in hoarding the sugar.<br \/>\nState Minister for Revenue Hammad Azhar while presenting the budget in the National Assembly, on July 11 maintained that presently sugar was subject to sales tax at 8 per cent.<br \/>\nHe stressed that there was huge economic potential, but tax collection from this sector was Rs18 billion which was much lower than actual potential.<br \/>\n\u201cTo maximise this tax gap and to harmonise its rate with other items, it is proposed that the sales tax rate on sugar may be increased to 17 per cent,\u201d the state minister continued.<br \/>\nAs a result of this measure, the price of sugar was expected to increase by Rs3.60 per kilogramme.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Involved
