Internal Revenue Office Chitwan has started sending house to house correspondence to collect arrears of tax. Letters have been sent to the homes of taxpayers who have not paid value added tax (VAT) and income tax for a long time.

There are 70,000 taxpayers in the office. 10,000 of them are from VAT. 40 percent of the total taxpayers have not submitted their income statement. According to Punya Vikram Khadka, head of the office, correspondence has been started for those who have not paid tax for more than four months. 

The office has started a campaign to collect arrears and control leakages. The process has been advanced to freeze the assets of taxpayers who have not paid dues for a long time and whose bank accounts have been frozen.  According to Khadka, head of the

office, three generations of non-tax payers have been sent to the Land Management and Records Department and their property details have been obtained. 200 taxpayers who have yet to pay arrears ranging from 1 million to 14 million are under the office. Two billion 47 crores should be recovered from those taxpayers.    The

office is also looking for taxpayers who have registered in PAN and have higher turnover. In the case of services and goods, there is a provision to be registered for value added tax with transactions exceeding 30 lakhs and in the case of others more than 50 lakhs. According to Khadka, 50 such farms have been contacted. Two hundred more farms are being studied. Khadka said that after studying the business of such farms for three years, they will be brought under VAT.

Some farms show more than the real income for studying abroad and some even for bank loans. He informed that 18 taxpayers within the Bharatpur Metropolitan Municipality have been selected and the balance test is being done to control the leakage.
