ABSTRACT

Tax incentives are the encouragement  given to firms  in form  of relief  The scheme  is a  strong fiscal   measure  which  can  stimulate   investment  and  savings  leading  to capital formulation.    This  capital  formed   can  be  used  productively   resulting  to economic and industrial development.  Therefore, this study focuses  on how these tax incentives  can affect growth  of manufacturing firms,  and to ascertain  if individual firms  actually decided  to go into business because of incentives  offered to them. The method of data collection  in the research is through primary  and secondary sources. The primary  data are raw data collected directly from  questionnaire  distributed and interviews conducted.  The secondary  data were obtained from  an intensive review of related  literatures.  The survey  research  design  was used for  the work.  The sample technique   adopted  for   this  work   is  the  non-probability   sample   technique.   The hypothesis  was tested using the simple  regression  method  of analysis  and the result of the analysis  revealed  that there exist a positive  relationship  between efficient tax incentive scheme and the firm's  growth.
