BEIJING — China has seen a robust growth in taxpaying market entities in the first half of the year amid the deepening of reforms to streamline government administrations, according to the State Taxation Administration.

The number of market entities handling tax-related businesses for the first time exceeded 6.24 million in the first six months, up 27.3 percent from the same period last year, the administration said on July 26.
