Greek state budget tax revenue rose 7.4% in October, compared with budget targets, totaling 4.963 billion euros, the finance ministry said on Monday, with tax revenue amounting to 38.642 billion euros in the 10-month period from January to October, up 3.3% from targets, ANA reports.
Alternate Finance Minister Theodoros Skylakakis, commenting on the budget figures noted: “October was a good month for tax revenue. It is clear that the economy is on a dynamic recovery course, as confirmed by the European Commission’s estimates, accompanied by a significant reduction of unemployment. Price increases in fuel and raw materials, causing significant problems, will have to be addressed by enterprises with self-control when rolling over this cost to consumer prices”.
