Transport Minister Bandula Gunawardena has revealed plans to establish shops exclusively selling VAT-exempt goods nationwide.
Speaking at a program in the Kaduwela area, the minister stated that this initiative aims to provide consumers with a fair opportunity to purchase items not subject to VAT.
Goods such as vegetables, baby milk powder, fruits, and rice fall under the non-VAT category.
Minister Gunawardena instructed officials to take the necessary measures to create a network of stores dedicated to selling these non-VAT items throughout the island.
