SINGAPORE – Taxpayers, both corporate and individual, contributed more to the Government’s coffers in the past financial year, but analysts caution that the pace could slowdown on the back of the Covid-19 pandemic.

The Inland Revenue Authority of Singapore (Iras) collected $53.5 billion in taxes in the fiscal year 2019/20, 2.1 per cent more than a year earlier, according to its annual report released on Friday (Oct 16).
