The opportunity to invest undisclosed money in the capital market will remain valid until end of the current fiscal year, the chief of the National Board of Revenue said Tuesday.

NBR chairman Nasiruddin Ahmed told a media briefing that a newspaper report that the opportunity would be suspended was not correct.

The new assurance by the NBR chief made it clear that the rule would last at least until June next year when the fiscal year ends.

Any person can invest his money in the capital market without facing any question from the revenue regulator about its source -- a provision the government has made amid crisis to revamp the drooping share market.
