Liquidity and solvency problems being faced by some local banks have negatively impacted the implementation of the Dushanbe budget’s revenue part.

Speaking to members of the Dushanbe legislature (Majlis), Dushanbe Mayor Mahmadsaid Ubaidulloyev noted on December 15 that the Dushanbe administration has not yet received 141 million somoni paid by taxpayers to the city budget through banks, according to the Dushanbe administration press center.  

Therefore, the city has reached only 90.6 percent of its revenue part target determined for the first eleven months of this year, the mayor said.  

According to him, the other reason for non-fulfillment of the revenue part target is decrease in tax receipts from mobile operators that resulted from declining incomes of the mobile operators themselves.  

Over the first eleven months of this year, the revenue part has reportedly stood 1.1066 billion somoni, which is 100 million somoni less than it was originally planned.  

Over the same eleven-month period, the expenditure part of the Dushanbe budget has stood at 1.0838 billion somoni, which is only 78.8 percent of the target.
