The recent VAT hike on clothing in Bangladesh strains businesses, consumers, and designers, especially with Eid approaching. Alternative measures like taxing luxury items or offering subsidies could have balanced revenue generation and economic sustainability more effectively.
Stocks soared yesterday as investors cheered the substantial cut in capital gains tax by the National Board of Revenue (NBR) to encourage big local and foreign investors.
Prior to the rate cut, taxpayers had to pay 30 percent tax on the capital gains over Tk 50 lakh if the gains are realised in five years at any time of a year.
Dirty toilets, too much crowd, inadequate space, lack of privacy, and lack of water and soap in the toilets were cited as the top reasons for menstruating girls missing schools.
If someone receives a gift, they will have to show it in their income tax return at the end of the year. At the same time, the person who gives the present will also have to inform it in their income tax return.
