The government has been able to spend Rs 156.86 billion — including cash and non-cash — in the eighth month of the current fiscal year.
"The total spending stood at 40.76 per cent of the total budget, whereas by mid-March, only 21.21 per cent budget had been spent on development activities," said finance secretary Krishnahari Baskota.
However, the Finance Ministry has been able to mobilise 97 per cent of the revenue target till the eighth month of the current fiscal year.
"Though revenue mobilisation has witnessed a 20.2 per cent growth to Rs 144.47 billion by the end of Falgun (mid-March), it is a shortfall of around Rs 4 billion of the target," he said. "The ministry had set a revenue target of Rs 148.45 billion for the eighth month of the current fiscal year."
The shortfall will be covered by next month, he claimed, adding that the government — as on the ninth month — apart from tightening the loopholes in revenue leakage and controlling leakage at the border customs, the Finance Ministry has recently revaluated the customs, made Past Credit Audit effective to push the customs mobilisation up, and tightened rental tax. "Nepal Telecom will give around Rs 3 billion dividend to the ministry under the non-tax head that has witnessed a 16 per cent shortfall from the target."
Similarly, the slowdown in the housing and real estate business, and vehicle sales has hit the revenue target by 25 per cent each, the finance secretary said, adding that excise has also seen a seven per cent shortfall.
However, excise will witness a rise once the department tightens the screw on excise stickers, he said, adding that by the ninth month the government will meet its target.
The ministry has been able to mobilise Rs 46.09 billion under VAT, Rs 27.85 billion under income tax, Rs 26.08 billion under customs, Rs 20.11 billion under non-tax, Rs 19.27 billion under excise and Rs 5.04 billion under registration and vehicle tax headings to add to the total of Rs 144.4 billion.

ent objectives for shedding fat. While particular drugs in the short term solve the
matter, the horrible side effects are certainly not worth it, plus
they never provide more than a short-term solution. It is a
known fact that 95% of fad diet plans fail. Many thanks for sharing your thinking on this web site.

I know of the fact that nowadays, more and more people are attracted to digital cameras
and the industry of pictures. However, really being
a photographer, you have to first shell out so much time deciding which model of camera to buy as well as moving store to store just so you might buy the least expensive
camera of the brand you have decided to decide on.
But it will not end just there. You also have to think
about whether you can purchase a digital dslr camera extended warranty.
Thanks a lot for the good points I gained from your
site.

I have seen a great deal of useful points on your site about computer systems.
However, I've got the impression that laptops are still less than powerful sufficiently to be a sensible choice if you normally do things that require many power, for instance video editing and enhancing. But for web surfing, microsoft word processing, and majority of other frequent computer work they are just fine, provided you don't mind your little friend screen size.
Thank you sharing your notions.
