The exchange, in full
The Prime Minister

Madam Speaker, I am informed by the Mauritius Revenue Authority that the total value collected in terms of Value Added Tax amounts to Rs52.2 billion over the period 01 July 2025 to 30 April 2026.

Madam Speaker

Yes.

Mr Juman

Thank you, Madam Speaker. Hon. Prime Minister, can you indicate whether, the reduction of the VAT registration threshold from Rs6 million to 3 has generated the additional revenue expected, if not, whether you will review it in the next budget?

The Prime Minister

No, we will not review it because it has actually brought more people into the formal process.

Madam Speaker
