Gazeti lenyewe Daily News linalomilikiwa na serikali, serikali hiyo hiyo imeua ATC, viongozi wake ndio wanamiliki PW. TRA waanze kutujibu hili, Celtel kwenda Zain kwenda Airtel je waliclear kodi zao? Sheraton hotel kwenda Royal Palm kwenda Serena Hotel je wameclear madeni yote?

 

[Consigliere]

Sitaweka maoni yangu mpaka nitakaposikia kauli kutoka kwa FastJet.

 

[Chimbuvu]

Precision air mwaka jana imelipa kodi kiasi gani kama unajua?

kwa hiyo Fast jet wasamehewe kodi ambayo hawajalipa?

Problems are piling up on Fly540 Tanzania which has been rebranded to FastJet, as the Tanzania Revenue Authority (TRA) is demanding unpaid taxes amounting to 2.8 bn/-.

The TRA claim comes a few days after the Tanzania Airports Authority (TAA) had demanded the airline to pay over 570,668,242/- and 95,360.50 US Dollars in outstanding landing and parking charges.

The TAA letter dated February 12 this year also requires the airline to provide the authority within three working days a clear position regarding the clearance of the outstanding debt.

In the latest move, TRA claims in the letter whose copy was availed to ‘Daily News’ that the airline has not met its obligations which include tax liabilities such as Pay As You Earn (PAYE) as per payroll analysis amounting to 456,317,637/- and PAYE difference with accounts worth of 987,517,985/-. Other categories of tax claims include; Skills Development Levy (SDL) amounting to 117,872,376 /-, SDL per differences with final accounts worth of 237,004,317/- , final rental tax of 70,877,283/-, stamp duty amounting to 15,708,037/- and departure tax of 951,562,012/-. Dated December 3, 2012, the document states that the scope of TRA audit of tax liabilities facing the airline had included corporate tax remittances from 2009 to 2011, PAYE and SDL starting from January 2009 to November 2012 and Rental and Stamp Duty from 2009 to 2012.

According to TRA, the preliminary audit of all categories of taxes outlined above are yet to be paid by the company which was registered as an airline known as Fly540 Tanzania on May 29th in 2008.

The TRA document further states that the audit was intended to induce voluntary compliance through effective and efficient tax audit programme and to utilize audit opportunities to educate, foster customer care hence build trust, confidence and improved compliance to tax payer, FastJet.

Fastjet is incorporated in England and Wales under the companies Act 1985 with its registered office at Gatwick Airport in the UK. FastJet’s Africa Operations, previously Lonrho Aviation (BVI) Ltd, have been licensing the Fly540 brand from Five Forty Aviation since 2008.

FastJet’s Africa Operations now fly three Fly540 branded planes in Angola and two in Ghana. It flew two planes using the Fly540 brand in Tanzania until November 2012 when the new company took over its operations in the country.

R.B ukienda pale DSM International Airport kuna ndege za Fly540 na Fast Jet; naomba kukuuliza FastJet wamenunua njia za Fly540 au ni Fly540 wamebadili jina? Kama Fly540 wamebadili jina kwa nini bado kuna ndege zinazoruka kwa jina la Fly 540 pale DIA? Waacheni wanyonge nao wapande ndege kwa muda mfupi waliobakiza hapa duniani

 

[Chimbuvu]

Hata ukimya nao ni jibu

Sitaweka maoni yangu mpaka nitakaposikia kauli kutoka kwa FastJet.

Mkuu wa TRA Mchagga; owner wa Precision air Mchagga. Fast jet ni mshindani wa Precision air ya Mchagga
Kwa hiyo kwa TRA, Fastjet ni bidha bandia

Nakupa mia

 

[agatony8l]

Jamani hii nji hii mbona inaendeshwa kwa upendeleo? Hao PA wamelipia kodi kiasi gani toka waanze hiyo biashara utastaajabu hata robo ya hizo wanazoidai FastJet haifiki. Hata kama ni deni la kuridhi kwa Fly540 argument ni hiyo hiyo toka wasilete ujinga wao hapa. kinachowauma ni kuona kwa sasa ndege si anasa tena ambayo waliokuwa wanaafford kupanda ni wao na watoto zao tu.
Baada ya ujio wa hii ndege bei za tiketi zimeshuka sana, kwenda na kurudi KIA-DAR ilikuwa Hadi 550,000 lakini kwa sasa imekuwa Hadi 249,000 na hii ukaitumia Agenti otherwise WAWEZA pata ktk gharama nafuu Zaidi. Fastjet Tupo Nyuma yako wakomalie hao

Fast jet imeanza kufanya kazi mwaka gani? Si mwaka 2012. Kwanini madeni ya 540 yanahusishwa na fast jet walishasema hawana ushirika na 540? Hizi ni njama za mafisadi.

 

[stephot]

Mmeona hiyo njama eeh,JF lete vitu,ukweli na uwazi,wasije tu wakaifungia JF tuwe tunatumia kuanzia saa moja usiku mpaka saa tatu.:yo:

 

[mujusi]

Njama za kumukoa PA! 3bn hata mwaka hawajamalza!?

Kama sio njama basi ni mfumo mbovu ambao umekaa ki rushwa rushwa. Akilini haiwezi kukaa kama Kampuni kubwa kam ile iwe haijalipa kodi toka 2008 (PAYE na zingine ) halafu ikawepo bila ya kupelekewa demand note mpaka inaondika kwenye biashara? Mbona wenye viduka vidogo tu ukichelewa kupeleka VAt returns unafuatwa haraka.

Kuacha madeni makubwa ya kodi ndio baada kunapelekea kukaa pamoja na kukubaliana(Compromise) na hivyo kuathiri ukusanyaji wa mapato kwa kunufaisha wachache.
Kama hili ni kweli basi TRA mfumo wao wa kukusanya mapato una kasoro kubwa. Billioni 2 sio kiasi kidogo.

Hakika ni hujuma.. maana kimsingi TRA wawaambie watanzania kwa miaka yote hiyo walikuwa wapi wasikusanye kodi kwa Fly540 au ndio walikuwa wanafunika kombe mwanaharamu apite? Kimsingi wanajiumbua kwa watanzania kwani inaonyesha wazi sasa kuna vita ya kibiashara kati ya Precision Air na dada zake Vs Fast Jet na serikali yetu dhalimu ipo vitani kutetea mafisadi.
