City Reporter: Divisional Commissioner of Chittagong, Tofail Islam, said that there is a little fear among many about any online activity. But when everyone gets used to using it, it seems like a very easy task. Online return filing will reduce the workload of tax officials. There is a lot of pressure to file income tax returns at the end of the year. Sometimes there is no scope for verification. It can also be wrong. Now if online return filing can be started from July, it will be good. It will also make revenue generation easier.
He said these things while addressing the chief guest on the occasion of the inauguration of ‘Online Return Filing and Tax Information Service Center-2024’ at Agrabad Government Office Building-1 yesterday afternoon. Deputy Tax Commissioner of Chittagong Tax Zone-3 MD presented the keynote at the event. Jonaid Hossain. He said that taxpayers can file their returns online at home. For that purpose, the National Board of Revenue (NBR) has taken various programs across the country. In continuation of this, the Chittagong Income Tax Department has opened a service center on the ground floor of Agrabad Government Work Building 1. As a result, taxpayers can file their returns themselves in a short time without any hassle. Therefore, taxpayers do not have to visit the income tax office in person. Even income tax payable can be paid through Bikash, Cash, and A-Challan. As a result, they can save time and money. Taxpayers will get this service 24 hours a day and night. A hotline service has also been launched for this purpose. You can access the service by logging on to www.e-taxnbr.gov.bd. If any assistance is required in this regard, advice can be obtained by contacting the hotline. Apart from that, you can attend the service center and receive the service.
