Committee formed to study Finance Act provisions


Kathmandu, July 21
The government has decided to form a five-member committee to study the complexity in the implementation of the Value Added Tax (VAT) in the transportation sector, Permanent Account Number (PAN) and Vehicle and Consignment Tracking System (VCTS).
Following the discussion with the representatives of the Federation of Nepalese Chambers of Commerce and Industry (FNCCI) on Sunday, the Ministry of Finance (MoF) has decided to form a committee to study the controversial provisions in the Finance Act 2076. The committee will have two representatives from the MoF, two from the FNCCI and one independent expert.
The committee will study the problems created by the provisions in the Fiscal Act and submit its recommendations to the Ministry by Friday, July 26.
The Finance Act has come into effect from 17 July.
Finance Minister Dr. Yuba Raj Khatiwada said that the government was serious about the problems created by the provisions of the new Finance Act. He promised to address the demands of the private sector and urged them to withdraw the protests and run businesses.
President of the FNCCI Bhawani Rana urged the government to immediately address the issues regarding the VAT, web-based VCTS and PAN since they might create challenges for the businesses, specially the micro, small and cottage enterprises.
"The government should create an environment where entrepreneurs can run their business and industry with confidence. Only then the business can contribute to the national economic growth," she said.
Earlier, Prime Minister KP Sharma Oli on Friday had urged FM Dr. Khatiwada, Minister for Industry, Commerce and Supplies Matrika Prasad Yadav and FNCCI President Rana to find the solutions to the problem.
