“All justified costs should be recognized in the final tariffs. So far, no company has applied for recognition in tariffs of the tax, so I do not know what impact this will have to the consumer. We estimate somewhere around 1-2 %,” said Havrileţ, quoted by Agerpres.

Statements made ​​for special constructions tax amounted in the first collection day to about a billion lei, double the budgeted amount, announced Secretary of State in the Ministry of Finance, Dan Manolescu.

“We had a declared sum of one billion lei, being updated. Statement is submitted for the entire annual amount but is payable in two installments. Amount is already double than that budgeted,” said Manolescu.

The first term for the special tax payment by the companies for 2014 was of 26 of May, the second installment will be due on September 25, 2014.
