  • Nepal’s Internal Revenue Collection Costs Rise to 3.38 Paisa per 1000 Rupees in FY 2079/80

    Nepal’s Internal Revenue Collection Costs Rise to 3.38 Paisa per 1000 Rupees in FY 2079/80


    In the fiscal year 2079/80, the Nepalese government conducted a cost analysis, revealing that it incurred a cost of 3.38 paisa to collect 1000 rupees of internal revenue. This analysis was conducted by the Internal Revenue Department (IRD), which reported a total revenue of Rs 4.79 kharba for the year. The departments and subordinate offices associated with revenue collection spent Rs 1.41 arba on current and capital expenditures. Consequently, the cost of tax collection per thousand rupees for the fiscal year amounted to Rs 3.38. This figure marked an increase from the previous year’s 2.23 paisa. The rise is attributed to the department falling short of its revenue target in the preceding year, achieving only 76.58% of the set goal of Rs 6.26 Kharba.

    The overall growth rate of revenue collection for the year was negative by over 10%, primarily influenced by reduced imports and economic relaxation. This decrease in revenue collection exerted pressure on the government’s resource management. Although the target for the fiscal year was set at Rs 14.3 kharba, only Rs 10.10 kharba was collected, representing 72% of the total target.

    The Internal Revenue Department underscores that recent technological advancements in the tax system have contributed to a decrease in the cost per thousand. Additionally, the department asserts that administrative improvements, adherence to expenditure frugality standards, and increased taxpayer participation have all played pivotal roles in reducing costs.

    “Nepal Rastra Bank to Publicize Monetary Policy for Fiscal Year 2080-81, Governor’s Return Coincides with Announcement”


    The Nepal Rastra Bank (NRB) is preparing to announce the monetary policy for the ongoing fiscal year 2080-81, which is expected to be publicized by the end of the first week of Shrawan. Narayan Prasad Pokhrel, the Deputy Spokesperson and Information Officer of NRB, revealed in a phone conversation with Sharesansar that the central bank has devised internal procedures to ensure the monetary policy is made public by Shrawan 07, which falls on the upcoming Sunday.

    Narayan Prasad Pokhrel stated, “The internal procedures of the Nepal Rastra Bank have been designed in a way that allows for the monetary policy to be publicized by Shrawan 07.” This indicates that the necessary steps and protocols have been put in place within the central bank to ensure the timely release of the monetary policy.

    In related news, Governor Maha Prasad Adhikari of NRB is expected to return to Nepal from his foreign trip on Wednesday. Previously, there were reports that a delegation of 28 members, led by the governor himself, would be traveling to Canada. The purpose of this trip was to engage in discussions with the assessment team of the Financial Action Task Force (FATF) in order to prevent Nepal from being placed on the “grey list” for money laundering.

    The announcement of the monetary policy by the NRB is an important event that will have implications for the fiscal year 2080-81 in Nepal. It is expected that Governor Maha Prasad Adhikari’s return from his foreign trip will coincide with the release of the monetary policy, indicating that the central bank is actively addressing both domestic and international financial matters.

  • “Inland Revenue Department (IRD) Falls Short of Revenue Target, Collecting Rs. 4 Kharba 80 Arba in Last Fiscal Year”

    “Inland Revenue Department (IRD) Falls Short of Revenue Target, Collecting Rs. 4 Kharba 80 Arba in Last Fiscal Year”


    The Inland Revenue Department (IRD) faced a shortfall in revenue collection for the last fiscal year, collecting a total of Rs. 4 Kharba 80 Arba. This amount fell 23 percent below the target set at Rs. 6 Kharba 26 Arba. Furthermore, the revenue collected was Rs. 3 Arba less than the previous year’s collection (2078/79).

    Throughout the fiscal year, the department struggled to meet its revenue targets. Even in the month of Ashad, revenue collection fell short compared to the previous year, with only Rs. 72 Arba collected as opposed to the previous year’s Rs. 73 Arba.

    By the end of Jestha, the department had collected Rs. 4 Kharba 8 Arba, falling short by Rs. 2 Arba compared to the previous fiscal year. Despite this, it was significantly below the revenue target set for the year.

    The lower revenue collection was primarily attributed to reduced earnings from banks, financial institutions, alcohol, and automobile dealers compared to the previous year. The department faced challenges in meeting revenue targets since the month of Shrawan, with each subsequent month falling short of the set targets.

    For instance, in Poush, the department collected only Rs. 71.31 Arba, which was far below the target of Rs. 1 Kharba 6 Arba. Similarly, in Chaitra, the collection amounted to only Rs. 55.2 Arba, while the target was set at Rs. 83.75 Arba.

    Overall, the Inland Revenue Department managed to collect approximately 77 percent of the targeted revenue, resulting in a shortfall of Rs. 3 Arba compared to the previous fiscal year’s collection.
