new Delhi. Central Board of Direct Taxes (CBDT) chairman JB Mohapatra said that the government’s decisions to reform the Income Tax Department and ‘strengthen’ the domestic economy have resulted in record direct tax collections. He said that the apprehensions related to the economy affected by Kovid-19 were dismissed and companies performed well during the current financial year 2021-22 in terms of paying tax.
Mohapatra said, “It will be very difficult to say how the situation will be next year but there is no room to say that good times last only for four quarters.” He also mentioned the reasons for record tax collection during the conversation. He said, ‘First of all, the Indian economy has to be strengthened. The better the economy, the better will be the tax collection, which is happening now.
