Tax payers should remit the Income Tax on time, urged Durga Charan Dash, Chief Commissioner of Income Tax, Coimbatore, at Income Tax Day programme here on Wednesday.

According to a press release, Income Tax is a major source of revenue in the country to create basic infrastructure for the public. The tax paid comes back to the people in the form of various government schemes. High income people should join hands with the Department and support it by paying the tax on time.

The Chief Commissioner added that the Department is fully computerised and the tax payers can upload online their grievance, applications, and demands. There is a system to track if the grievances are addressed on time.

Income Tax Day is celebrated every year to create awareness among the public on the need to pay Income Tax. This year, competitions were held for school students recently and saplings were planted on July 23. A blood donation camp was organised as part of the programmes on Wednesday in which over 100 people took part. At a meeting later in the day, B.K. Krishnaraj Vanavarayar, chairman of Bharatiya Vidya Bhavan, Coimbatore, addressed the participants and the top tax payers were felicitated.
