In an official statement issued on Friday, the FBR clarified that it followed a meticulous process of reporting revenue collection and took all possible care to preclude duplication or misreporting of figures. Furthermore, these figures are authenticated and reconciled not only with the State Bank of Pakistan, but also with the AGPR. Therefore, the question of fudging of figures does not merit consideration. The FBR also clarified that no inquiry on the issue of duplicate reporting was being conducted. In order to strengthen internal controls and management, the FBR like all responsible organisations continuously endeavours to streamline its core business processes and reporting mechanisms and such efforts may not be scandalized by insinuations of any wrongdoing by the FBR or its field offices.
