Clear the air on ‘zero-penalty’ amnesty, say tax experts

PETALING JAYA: The Inland Revenue Board (LHDN) must be clear about its “zero-penalty” Special Voluntary Disclosure Programme 2.0 (SVDP) to avoid misunderstandings or confusion, say experts.

Tax lawyer S. Saravana, from Rosli Dahlan Saravana Partnership, said LHDN must keep its word on the zero penalty for those coming forward in good faith under the amnesty programme.
