Today the RA government will submit to the NA the final version of a new tax package. Let us remember that this package anticipates increase of several taxes. This package was also discussed with the RA President two-three weeks ago. According to our information the new package anticipates 46 billion more taxes to be collected during 2012. However, the deputy-chair of the State Revenue Committee Armen Alaverdyan had said that the value of the package is 14 billion AMD. It means that on the way of the NA and the President’s office the amount of money lowered to 14 billion from 46. This information was yesterday reiterated by the chair of the NA standing committee of economic issues Vardan Ayvazyan. “During the discussion with the government the expected taxes were lowered from 46 billion and the rest of the tax burden was left at the expense of the cut of the luxury tax,” said Ayvazyan.
