Finance Minister Abul Hassan Mahmood Ali revealed this target while placing the national budget for FY25 at the Jatiya Sangsad on Thursday.

“Given all these reforms and initiatives to augment revenue collection, a total of Tk5,41,000 crore revenue income has been estimated for FY2024-25, which accounts for 9.7% of the GDP,” he said.

It is proposed to collect Tk4,80,000 crore through the National Board of Revenue (NBR) and Tk61,000 crore from other sources, Ali said.
