Honesty should be in DNA of taxmen: Prez to trainee revenue officers

NEW DELHI: Honesty should be written into the DNA of taxmen, President Ram Nath Kovind said today, addressing a group of trainee officers of the Indian Revenue Service (IRS).

             He also asked them to be sensitive towards honest taxpayers.

             Meeting a batch of the trainee officers, the president said that India was the world’s fastest growing major economy.

             “Over the coming decade, its GDP is expected to more than double. This will create more opportunities all-round. It will increase tax revenues and enhance challenges for IRS officers,” Kovind said.

             “They will need to address the challenges while facilitating the economic engine of our country. Their success will determine both their individual future, as well as the trajectory of the Indian economy,” he said.  (AGENCIES)
