Haryana CM Nayab Singh Saini said a transparent and equitable taxation system is essential for economic prosperity and good governance in the state. If the tax system is simple and effective, then traders, entrepreneurs and investors benefit and economic activities grow rapidly.
The Chief Minister was speaking as the chief guest at a function organized on the occasion of the launch of 'One Time Settlement Scheme-2025' in Kurukshetra today.
The Chief Minister said the One Time Settlement Scheme-2025 will provide great relief to thousands of taxpayers, especially small shopkeepers, entrepreneurs and traders. This scheme will give an opportunity to taxpayers to make a new beginning by freeing them from the old financial burden.
He said the One Time Settlement Scheme-2025 is for those taxpayers of Haryana who could not pay the outstanding amount of their taxes due to various reasons. Under this scheme, taxpayers with dues up to Rs 10 lakh will get a rebate of up to Rs 1 lakh.
This scheme will remain open for the coming 180 days i.e. 6 months. He appealed to the taxpayers to pay their dues as soon as possible.
