    SINGAPORE’S tax revenue rose 17 per cent to hit S$80.3 billion for FY2023/24, a result that the taxman on Wednesday (Sep 4) said reflects strong economic growth and nominal wage growth in 2022.

    Tax revenue rose in most categories, based on the annual report of the Inland Revenue Authority of Singapore (Iras).

    Corporate income tax takings jumped 25.6 per cent to S$29 billion due to strong corporate earnings, Iras said. This is the largest share of Iras’ revenue collection at over a third.
