The Central Board of Indirect Taxes and Customs (CBIC) chairman Sanjay Kumar Agarwal inaugurated the GST Bhawan, an official complex of CGST Rohtak Commissionerate at Rohtak, Haryana, the Ministry of Finance.
To assist the Goods and Services Tax assessees the newly inaugurated GST Bhawan is easily accessible and is at the centre of connectivity to the main districts of Haryana.
Agarwal while addressing the gathering, depicted satisfaction that the project was completed within the budget allocated even after the COVID-19 pandemic, ensuring high quality and accommodating the requirements of the future of the workspace.
The agencies that are engaged in the project led by Chief Commissioner CGST Panchkula Zone for completing the same within the said time have been appreciated by Agarwal.
Successive support and encouragement for infrastructure development have been accomplished by the Government which is seen by the concern that the Finance Ministry has sanctioned residential and office building projects of Central Board of Indirect Taxes and Customs for nearly Rs 4600 crore in the last 10 fiscal years (i.e., 2014-24).
Shashank Priya, a Member, of CBIC, stated that when he joined the department 34 years ago, there were not many facilities available, and the office was run from a rented premises.
This new building will promote the officers and staff, boosting and enhancing the output. Since GST taxpayers are growing, we need more tools and modern facilities to streamline them for easy GST compliance.
It is a case of pride and happiness for CBIC to obtain a futuristic workspace, completed not just within the time frame but also within the sanctioned budget, Manoj Kumar Shrivastava, Chief Commissioner of Central Goods and Services Tax Panchkula Zone mentioned.
