Weldone, Also need a STRICT CHECK on Shop keepers that they DON’T INCREASE so called PRICES OF THE items.
Who will check this? Who is responsible if, shop keeper ASK for more profit?
Mobile counter in katchehry bazar earns 20 to 90 thousand plus daily in Faisalabad. Fbr should check individuals rather than overall fixing tax on the shop area.
