Kathmandu, May 30
The government has raised the tax on chocolate even further. The government has increased the excise charge on chocolate by ten percent, with a customs fee of forty percent.
The excise tax on chocolate, which was previously set at 5%, has now been raised to 15%.
Chocolates, both imported and domestically manufactured, have grown more costly as a result of the Fiscal Bill 2079’s increase in the tax on chocolates.
