Maharashtra Government undecided on levying entertainment tax on IPL

The Maharashtra Government has not taken a final decision on levying entertainment tax on the IPL, said the Chief Minister, Mr Ashok Chavan, on Wednesday while addressing the media on the eve of budget session. When it was pointed out that the State Cabinet said on January 20 that entertainment tax of up to 25 per cent would be imposed on the ticket sales of IPL and other one-day international cricket matches, Mr Chavan said no final decision was taken and the matter was still under consideration. Matches held in the municipal limits would attract 25 per cent tax while those outside the municipal limits would be levied 20 per cent tax.
