CITATION: | |
Entertainment tax subsidy is a capital receipt even though the source is the public who visit the cinema hall after it becomes operational |
A subsidy of such nature cannot possibly be granted by the Government directly. Entertainment tax is leviable on the admission tickets to cinema halls only after the facility becomes operational. Since the source of the subsidy is the public at large which is to be attracted as viewers to the cinema halls, the funds to support such an incentive cannot be generated until and unless the cinema halls become functional
