The government has rejected IT Industry’s demand for waiving Tax on its services but assured them to provide maximum facilitation and exemption from audit by authorities.

Finance Minister Ishaq Dar said there is only 0.25% tax which is very minimal. He said people should make a habit of paying taxes rather than seeking exemptions.

He assured IT professionals that FBR won’t send tax notices on exporting services.
