97 Percent of Projected Tax Revenues Realized Last Year
IPO Public Relations - Some 109 thousand billion tomans in taxes were collected last year as 97 percent of the projected tax revenues were realized, announced the economic affairs and finance minister.
DrFarhadDejpasand described it as a considerable achievement in state revenues which came despite all pessimistic projections as regarding the fall in tax earnings last year.
Noting that the enemy was trying to block all incoming resources under sanctions, he remarked his portfolio submitted breakthrough proposals and had them passed by relevant bodies, thereby playing a significant role in dealing with sanctions.
“With part of the incoming oil revenues blocked, we resorted to sound revenues, an age-old wish, that is substituting a non-oil budget and using tax revenues and we were successful,” Dejpasand remarked.
He pointed out in replacing foreign exchanged revenues in the face of foreign pressures aimed at reducing non-oil exports, the customs were required to spare no effort to facilitate non-oil exports.
