June 19, 2007       Letters to Editor Budget 2007-08 Dr Abdus Sattar Syed, Ace Data Products, Dhaka The proposal in the budge to realise Advance Income Tax at source at the rate of Tk 1,000 at the time of issuance & renewal of trade licence by the City Corporation is a financial burden, particularly for Small & Medium Enterprises(SMEs) and is directly counterproductive to the spirit of the current reform initiatives to lower the costs of doing business.
