- It is a five-point mantra to tax officials to reform and broaden the direct tax net base.
- RAPID stands for :
-
- R for Revenue,
- A for Accountability,
- P for Probity,
- I for Information and
- D for Digitization
- The five point charter seeks to bring reform to country’s age old and redundant revenue administration, which still has a huge hangover of the British colonial legacy
- It also seeks to make the tax system easier and accessible for the tax payers at the same time make it difficult to the defaulters who bend the system
