Tax filing falls 1% in FY19,indicating overall slowdown:Report
The number of people filing income tax returns has declined by a full 1 percent in fiscal 2019, despite the increased government focus to broaden the base, indicating a deepening slowdown in the overall economy, says a brokerage report.
