Business taxes are a significant source of income in Makati.
The Makati City government credited company taxes for the 6-percent rise in its revenue collection goal from the previous year.
According to a report released on Monday by Makati City Treasurer Jesusa Cuneta, company taxes reached PHP9.1 billion or 10% more than the 2021 total of PHP20.9 billion collected.
Real property tax, which was reported as having been collected at PHP8.1 billion, or a 7% increase from 2021, was the second-highest revenue source.
The increased collections, according to mayor Abby Binay, demonstrate that locals and businesspeople have confidence in the city’s leadership.
She applauded the City Treasurer’s Office for its aggressive communication campaign and collecting efforts to remind taxpayers of their duties.
