The government has backed down its controversial tax policy introduced in the recent budget speech.

A meeting between Finance Minister Dr Prakash Sharan Mahat and Investors led the government to withdraw the decision.

A draft has been made regarding the decision, added Dhakal.

It has been agreed that the 7.5 percent and 5 percent tax payable by the investors in capital gain is the final tax for the transaction.
