Budget revenue in the first quarter reached 1,498.7 billion VND.

(Baonghean.vn) -On April 11th, the Nghe An Provincial Tax Department held an online meeting with district, city, and town tax offices to discuss revenue collection and solutions for the following quarters. Mr. Nguyen Dinh Hoa, Director of the Nghe An Provincial Tax Department, chaired the meeting.

The Tax Department held an online meeting on revenue collection for the first quarter of 2014.

According to the Tax Department's report: In the first quarter of 2014, the economy had not yet recovered from the crisis. While lending capital was abundant and interest rates were low, businesses absorbed capital very poorly, production and business activities stagnated, and therefore the growth rate did not meet the set target, leading to many difficulties in budget revenue collection. With the guidance of local and central authorities, budget revenue in Nghe An province in the first quarter reached VND 1,498.7 billion, equivalent to 27% of the statutory budget estimate and 26% of the provincial People's Council budget estimate, an increase of 42% compared to the same period last year. Of this, total domestic revenue (excluding land use fees) reached VND 1,375 billion, an increase of 37% compared to the same period last year. Some tax branches had relatively good revenue collection figures, such as: Do Luong, Nghi Loc, Con Cuong, Que Phong, Thai Hoa, Cua Lo, Thanh Chuong…

At the conference, the tax offices of Vinh, Hoang Mai, Cua Lo, Quy Hop, etc., presented their opinions and received directives from the Director to accelerate the progress of budget collection in the following quarters, contributing to the completion of the 2014 budget collection plan.
