To boost Delhi government’s tax collection and bring in transparency, Deputy Chief Minister Manish Sisodia on Monday launched ‘DVAT BILL’ app and said that people can play an important role in governance through this mobile application.
The software has been developed by Delhi government’s Trade and Taxes department. Sisodia, who also holds finance portfolio, said that through this app, people can become a “VAT Inspectors”.
“Today, technology gives power to any citizen to be as powerful as MLAs, minister or bureaucrat. We are extending the opportunity through this app,” Sisodia said.
VAT Commissioner S S Yadav said the scheme would be for bill or cash memo/retail invoice of not less than Rs 100 for purchases made from a registered dealer in Delhi.
