On the direction of the Chief Commissioner Inland Revenue, officers from the Federal Board of Revenue (FBR) and RTO Hyderabad visited Gul Centre and surrounding markets to inform small traders about the Small Shopkeepers Fixed Tax Scheme. This scheme, introduced by the FBR, is designed specifically for small shopkeepers.
An information desk was established at Gul Centre, where officers spoke directly with shopkeepers, explaining the scheme's straightforward registration, low fixed tax rates, and the convenience of enrollment via the FBR's online portal and app. The officers emphasized that the scheme is intended to facilitate rather than penalize traders, encouraging their participation in the formal tax system.
The team also paid a visit to Dawlance Electronics showroom, where they held a detailed discussion with the proprietor and staff. They addressed all the traders' queries and reiterated the department's commitment to facilitating taxpayers through dialogue and not through enforcement alone.
Shopkeepers appreciated the department's outreach efforts and expressed their intention to cooperate. The Chief Commissioner Inland Revenue, RTO Hyderabad, announced that such awareness campaigns will continue across the city's commercial areas. The department's approach, they emphasized, is one of building confidence among taxpayers through open communication and facilitation.
