The Inland Revenue Authority of Singapore (IRAS) has imposed over S$6.8 million in taxes and penalties on eight nightclubs for improper tax declarations of flower garland sales.

These garlands are bought by customers and presented to performers at the club as a show of appreciation. The performer usually receives a percentage of the amount received for each garland.
