Value-added tax (VAT) is needed for development of Uttar Pradesh. This was the conclusion reached at a seminar conducted by the Indian Industries Association. | |
| Addressing the seminar on the "Need for VAT in Uttar Pradesh" organised by the IIA, the speakers urged the government to ensure high tax observance and convenient book-keeping. |
| |
| IIA office-bearers made a strong plea to the government to plug the loopholes and embrace VAT. |
| |
| Uttar Pradesh is one of the few states to have shunned VAT even as the rest of the country has adopted it. |
| |
| The seminar was headed by IIA President Tarun Khetrapal. Also present on the occasion were B H Naqvi, trade tax consultant; Sanjay Kaul, former IIA president and Anil Gupta, general secretary-IIA. |
