COIMBATORE: Minister for commercial taxes and registration department P Moorthy on Monday chaired a meeting with the representatives of traders’ associations and industrialists in Coimbatore and Erode region to understand their grievances related to commercial tax and the goods and services tax (GST). The state government will extend all support to honest traders and take action against dishonest traders, the minister said. He appealed to traders to help the government find spurious players. “Representatives from Tirupur have sought a separate commercial tax office in the district. Their request will be taken to the knowledge of the chief minister. Opinions and demands related to GST were obtained from the representatives and steps will be taken to convey them to the GST council,” Moorthy said.
