Over 10 months, more than half of the total revenues of the consolidated budget were provided by 4 sectors of the economy. This was reported on her Facebook page by the Acting Head of the State Tax Service of Ukraine Lesya Karnaukh.
Leaders in terms of the amount of payments made were:
– Processing industry – 17.7%;
– Wholesale and retail trade, repair of motor vehicles and motorcycles – 16.7%;
– Public administration and defense; compulsory social insurance – 12.2%;
– Financial and insurance activities – 8.7%.
These are key sectors for the stability of the country’s economy.
Compared to the same period in 2024, the largest growth in tax revenues was recorded in the following sectors:
– Processing industry – by 27% (+63.7 billion UAH);
– Wholesale and retail trade – by 25.9% (+58 billion UAH);
– Public administration and defense; mandatory social insurance – by 28.1% (+45.3 billion UAH);
– Supply of electricity, gas, steam and air conditioning – by 27.9% (+21.7 billion UAH).
“Ukrainian business continues to work, invest and support the economy. But the war and daily attacks by the enemy are increasing economic pressure. Destroyed infrastructure, loss of capacity, problems with electricity and logistics make paying taxes increasingly difficult even for honest businesses. Accordingly, this negatively affects tax revenues in the planned amounts to the budget,” added Lesya Karnaukh.
She thanked businesses that continued to pay taxes despite everything. Because in wartime, it is actually a matter of the country’s existence. (State Tax Service)
