Draft Annual Plan 1986-87 Planning Division Administration, Dadra and Nagar Haveli Silvassa

Abstract

Dadra and Nagar Haveli is a small Union Territory without Legislature. This being a predominantly tribal area, the avenue for additional resources mobilisation are limited. Sales Tax, Forest Produce, Power, Agriculture and Dairy products, rent from Government buildings, receipts from Government Distillery, State Excise etc. are the main sources for revenue. Due to recent introduction of Sales Tax from 1.1.1984, the receipt under Sales Tax alone during the year 1984-85 was Rs.16.86 lakhs. This is likely to increase to the extent of Rs.20.00 lakhs by the end of 1985-86.
