Varanasi: Finance Minister Nirmala Sitharaman on Tuesday stressed on building trust between taxpayers and tax administrators.

"We should be working towards efficient dispute resolution processes in tax related matters," she said while addressing Tax Administrators Meet here.

This is the second meeting in a series of meetings to be held with tax officials and taxpayers across various cities over the next few weeks.

The first meeting was held in Ahemdabad last week as part of confidence building effort.

During the occasion, the minister launched the 'GST Sampark' mobile application here. The app aims to reduce the physical interface between tax officials and taxpayers.
