Direct tax mop-up is showing signs of improvement with the third instalment of advance tax collections down only by 17.6 per cent against 22 per cent at the start of November.
“Initial indications, as on December 15, show that total net collection (gross minus refund) of direct taxes reached over ₹4.95 -lakh crore against ₹6.01-lakh crore on the corresponding date of 2019,” a senior government official said while clarifying that since bank- wise reconciliation is on, knowing the exact advance tax collection under the third instalment will take some time.
