While referring to prime minister's directions given to the concerned ministry in respect of the Amnesty Scheme that the beneficiaries should not be harassed, Karachi Chamber of Commerce & Industry (KCCI) president Junaid Esmail Makda said the business community warmly welcomes these directives and looks forward to quick implementation of the same.
"Therefore the Federal Board of Revenue (FBR) should be advised to immediately issue relevant notification about acceptance of stranded cases of those individuals who availed the Amnesty Scheme but their cases were not processed due to some IT-related glitches which are still kept as time-barred cases", he added in a statement issued.
KCCI president stated that there were many such cases in which individuals paid 5 percent tax by 31st July 2018 but their cases in FBR's portal were not processed due to some IT issues therefore, the government should be lenient with all such individuals and accept their cases under Amnesty scheme as they submitted their taxes on time.
