Here is another example of
Sylhet Statistics: ''Bangladesh National Budget''
Sadly tax collection is hard cash, can't manipulate it like BBS pie in the sky projections.
For FY 2018-19, their FM presented a
$55.3 billion budget and estimated that the tax revenue would be
$36 billion.
Actual Tax revenue for 2018-19 was just
$26.6 billion & Actual budget expenditure was just
$46.1 billion.

For FY 2019-20, the budget expenditure was to be
$61.5 billion budget and the estimated tax revenue was to be
$40 billion.
Actual Tax revenue for 2019-20 was an even lower
$26.11 billion & Actual budget expenditure was just
$49.4 billion.

And for 2021, even their revised estimate of tax collection for FY 2020-21 is 42% higher than the actual tax collection in 2019-20.
Yeah, 42% growth in tax receipts, quite possible in the pandemic period.
Do they really think everyone else is as stupid as them...???
