New challenges have emerged in the wake of globalization and economic integration. He told the probationers that in the coming years they will be dealing with the complex issues arising in an integrated world economy. The emerging challenges in tax administration can be met through ingenuity, innovation and adoption of new ideas and technology. He wished the probationers the very best in their future careers.
