Speakers for strengthening online platform of NBR to simplify tax services

Business Desk :
Speakers at a dialogue on Monday suggested strengthening the online platform of the National Board of Revenue (NBR) to simplify tax-related services.

They said that in the new Income Tax Act, the income tax return has been simplified as the return form has been brought onto one page, which is highly commendable.

However, they said the online platform of the NBR needs to be strengthened to ensure smooth submission of online returns and availability of other digital tax-related services.

The speakers came up with the suggestions at a dialogue titled “Income Tax Act 2023-Due Diligence by The Taxpayers” organized by the Business Initiative Leading Development (BUILD) held at its office here.

NBR member GM Abul Kalam Kaikobad spoke at the dialogue as the chief guest while former NBR chairman Dr Muhammad Abdul Mazid, Chairman of the Department of Accounting and Information System of Dhaka University Dr Dhiman Kumar Chowdhury, former NBR member Md Alamgir Hossain, former chairman of Janata Bank Ltd.
