Jagmohan for cut in air
travel tax New Delhi, July 4 In a letter to Finance Minister recently, Mr Jagmohan demanded among other things listing of aviation turbine fuel (ATF) under the “open goods category”, 15 per cent reduction in air travel tax, besides an appropriate cut on duties levied on ATF. Backing his demands with statistics on the fall of international tourist arrivals since September 11 last year, the Tourism Minister pointed out that due to high duty regime, the domestic airlines had become costlier and this had resulted in an increase in the outflow of Indian tourists abroad. |
