Revenue collection by Birgunj customs office exceeds target

Parsa –The revenue collection by the Birgunj Customs Office in the past three months of the current fiscal year exceeded the target. The office gathered over Rs 43.19 billion in revenue in this period against the target of Rs 37.75 billion. As told by office chief Gopal Khatri, the collection is 13 percent more than the target and 42 percent more than the revenue raised in the corresponding period last fiscal year. 
The increment in revenue collection is due to a growth in trade activities taking place via the country's major customs point. ---
