[Title] => Meralco customers to feel EVAT by August
[Summary] => Manila Electric Co. (Meralco) customers will not immediately feel the impact of the expanded value-added tax (EVAT) which takes effect starting July 1 as the Energy Regulatory Commission (ERC) and the Bureau of Internal Revenue (BIR) have not yet finalized the implementing rules and regulations on the new tax law.
Meralco president Jesus Francisco said the company will not be charging the VAT on the June consumption as Meralcos billing cycle varies depending on the consumer.
