The government will not allow any undisclosed money, earned illegally, to be legalized, but the undisclosed money earned legally may get chance to be legalized in the next fiscal year. "We'll not consider the money having no legal source for legalization, but the legally earned money that somehow became undisclosed might get chance," Finance Adviser Dr Mirza Azizul Islam said at a pre-budget discussion with the editors of print and electronic media Sunday at the National Board of Revenue (NBR) conference room.

NBR chairman Muhammad Abdul Mazid presided over the pre-budget discussion.

The Finance Adviser said the government is trying to widen the tax base and reduce the tax rates.
