No changes had been made in the tax rate for the calculation of Income Tax or the PAYE tax to the members of the Association of Medical Specialist, Finance Minister Mangala Samaraweera said this evening.
“Agreement was reached to amend the process of the expenditure calculation for the purpose of income tax payment only,” the Minister tweeted.
He made the announcement after Health Minister Rajitha Senaratne said the 24 per cent income tax imposed on medical specialists would be reduced to 15 per cent.

Why should the specialists be given a special rate? Are they above the rest of us? Income tax should be equitable to all irrespective of their qualification. BTW any changes to tax laws should be announced by MOF and not any other cabinet member. Now see what jokers you are !

You are exactly right. I think this had been the case at least for the last two decades.

They study on our tax money, strike on our tax money, drive luxury cars on our tax money, educate their children on our tax money and live on our tax money.Does the government think that Doctors are the only profession that contribute to the country’s well being ?????

Mangal Please get rid of old inefficient doing nothing only talking Bureau carts immediately

As usual Rajitha shooting from the hip. Why should medics be treated any differently to other tax payers.
Kumara Dharmarathne Tuesday, 07 August 2018 08:28 AM
Minister, If possible increase a little more income tax to Doctors,because having received plenty of money through private practice and various other means, these guys are playing havoc in the country.
yahiya Tuesday, 07 August 2018 08:51 AM
Media is totally misleading. All professionals must treated equal. Doctors are not above. Thanking to Mangala.
