Hike in all govt fees on the cards:
The Ministry of Finance (MoF) has undertaken all-out efforts to increase the income of the government
from non-tax revenue and non-NBR tax revenue sources to help reduce its borrowing from the banking
system. The MoF last week asked all government ministries and divisions to send their tax enhancement
proposals to the Finance Division of the ministry by December 31, a top Finance Ministry official said on
Tuesday. Finance Minister AMA Muhith has favoured the hike in all taxes (non-tax revenue and non-
NBR tax revenue) other than taxes coming from under the head of National Board of Revenue (NBR).
