To get the objectives, relevant time series secondary data were collected from the economic survey, websites of NTC and other sources published by the Ministry of Finance, Inland Revenue Department, Nepal Rastra Bank, World Bank, and previous works done by the scholars.

The tax revenue trend has signified the positive trends but is needs to be more adequate to meet the government revenue of Nepal.
