NBS: FG Raked In N1.10tn From VAT In 2018

The federal government generated a total of N1.10 trillion as Value Added Tax (VAT) in 2018. This represented a growth of 13.96 per cent (year-on-year), when compared to the N972.34 billion collected in 2017, the National Bureau of Statistics (NBS) stated yesterday. 

However, a total sum of N298.01 billion was realised in the fourth quarter (Q4, 2018), representing an increase of 8.96 per cent when compared to the N273.50 billion collected in the preceding quarter. 

The Sectoral Distribution of Value Added Tax (Q4 and Full Year 2018) released by the statistical agency, showed that other manufacturing companies generated the highest amount of VAT with N28.82 billion in Q4, closely followed by professional services and commercial and trading which both generated N24.12 billion and N16.02 billion respectively.
