Shri Jambusaria was in the city to attend the ‘Tax Conclave’ organized by Western Indian Regional Council (WIRC) of ICAI at Airport South station convention centre. CA Manish Gadia, chairman of WIRC, accompanied him.
Shri Jambusaria said that once the Covid pandemic is over the economy would pick up and fare box and non-fare box revenue of Nagpur Metro would increase significantly. “We should all hope that there is no third wave,†he added.
He further said that Maha Metro’s policy of earning over 50% revenue from non-fare box sources was good one and would help the organization greatly in initial stages. He expressed confidence that fare box revenue would pick up in the coming days.
