Gwalior Trade Fair Faces Uncertainty Over RTO Tax Exemption
The Gwalior Trade Fair, which is 121 years old, has started but is facing problems.
The main issue is that the government has not announced a tax break for cars, which usually attracts many people and businesses.
This tax break is important because it helps both the traders and the people visiting the fair.
Some people think the government is not giving enough attention to this fair and is instead focusing on another fair in Ujjain.
The traders have talked to important officials, but the problem is not yet solved.
The fair has started, but it is not as exciting or well-prepared as usual because of this issue.
The 121-year-old Gwalior Trade Fair started on December 25 but faces uncertainty due to the lack of RTO tax exemption notification.
The automobile sector, a main attraction, is affected as businesses cannot make full preparations without the tax exemption.
Traders and the public are disappointed, as the exemption usually drives both crowds and business.
Bhupendra Jain alleges that the state government is neglecting the Gwalior fair in favor of the Ujjain trade fair.
Traders have met with CM Mohan Yadav and Union Minister Jyotiraditya Scindia, but no concrete results have been achieved.
