Maharashtra CM quashes levy entertainment tax on the IPL matches
Bombay-High-Court
The Bombay High Court has asked Maharashtra government to clarify whether it has decided to levy entertainment tax on the IPL matches played in the state.
The court ordered the government to file its reply by May 5. The court’s direction came in response to IPL filed by the Shiv Sena leader Subhash Desai.
Meanwhile, Maharashtra Chief Minister Ashok Chavan on Monday ruled out levying entertainment tax on this year’s IPL matches played in the state. Speaking to reporters, he said that there can not be levying of any tax since the IPL season this year is over. Levying the tax on IPL 4 will be taken in the cabinet after discussion.
