The committee has formed different sub-committees to celebrate the event. Sharma said they have put aside the plan of announcing different schemes for taxpayers because of the code of conduct enforced by the Election Commission.
Speaking at the meeting of the committee on Sunday, industrialist Jagadish Rathi said the government should bring schemes to award small taxpayers.
The government started celebrating National Tax Day from last year to encourage and promote tax compliance. The government had felicitated 70 taxpayers last year.
