PATNA: The government
will pay heed to the Bihar industrialists’ demands of VAT reimbursement,
relaxation in commercial taxes and allowing them to create their own industrial
areas, among others, to boost industrial growth in the state, said principal
secretary, industries, Alok Kumar Sinha, at an interactive session with members
of Bihar Industries Association (BIA) here on Saturday.
Sinha said he would call a meeting next week of
officials of his department to discuss the suggestions made by the BIA members
for industrial development in the state. He also assured the BIA members to
arrange their meeting with Bihar State Electricity Board ( BSEB) officials to
discuss their demand for reducing power tariff for industries.
