MTL clarifies Rs. 5.4 billion sales tax fine

In a notification sent to PSX on 24/06/2024. Millat Tractor Limited (MTL) has announced the response to the misreported FBR fine in ‘Daily Dawn News’.

This statement addresses the recent news published in the ‘Daily Dawn’ regarding the imposition of a fine on the Company by the Federal Board of Revenue (FBR) amounting to Rs. 5.4 billion for sales tax audit discrepancies. This news has been misreported as the FBR has not imposed any such fine up to the publication of this information. However, the FBR has issued a show cause notice to the Company regarding sales tax-related matters based on its interpretation. The Company believes that most of the issues raised in the show cause notice have already been resolved by the Lahore High Court, FTO, and President of Pakistan, and are likely to be dismissed based on their decisions. Furthermore, other matters are against the factual position, and the Company expects to prevail in these matters.

MTL shares were last trading at Rs 638.27 today.
