Some of the visitors of this blog asked what is the current status of LBT in thane?

Answer:
Currently TSSIA (Thane Small Scale Industries Association), Thane Retailers Association along with thane plywood committee are fighting with govt officials for Uniform Tax Rates.
The other demands include
> lower penalties 
> overall reduction in LBT Rates

They have hence directed their respective members not to register for LBT till their demands are full-filled. They have also requested Chartered Accountants to wait till 15th April, 2013 to get their clients registered in order to create pressure on Municipality.


Municipality officials have said that they will not stop truck passing from Octroi naka till 20th April, 2013. After which they shall start checking for whether the person bringing goods in thane have registered for LBT.
