NEW DELHI: Expressing satisfaction over the successful implementation of the GST, President Ram Nath Kovind said today the new tax regime will benefit the economy and honest tax payers.
Addressing a group of probationers of the Indian Revenue Service (Customs and Central Excise), he said a nation’s tax structure should be just, efficient, honest and equitable.
Kovind said the Government last year introduced the Goods and Services Tax, the most comprehensive tax reform ever seen by the nation.
He said it was the Indian Revenue Service that had the responsibility of making sure that this mega reform was implemented across the nation and the tax assessees were properly educated about the new system. (AGENCIES)
