How is income tax calculated in Pakistan?
Pakistan uses a progressive slab system. Your taxable income is first determined by subtracting allowable deductions (medical allowance exemption, zakat / charitable donations) from gross annual income. Then the applicable slab‘s formula is used: Tax = Fixed Component + (Taxable Income − Slab Floor) × Slab Rate. Only the income within each slab bandis taxed at that band's rate — not the entire income. For incomes above PKR 10 million, a 9% surcharge is applied on top of slab tax.
What is the FBR tax return deadline for 2026?
The expected deadline is September 30, 2026. Filing on time keeps your Active Taxpayer List (ATL) status intact, which means lower withholding rates on banking, property, and investment transactions. Late filers face penalties and higher WHT deductions throughout the year.
What are the benefits of being a tax filer?
ATL filers pay significantly lower withholding tax on property purchases/sales, cash withdrawals above PKR 50,000/day, bank profit, dividends, and vehicle purchases. Filing also strengthens visa applications, loan eligibility, and business credibility with clients and banks.
What deductions can salaried employees claim?
Common deductions include: medical allowance (up to 10% of basic or PKR 25,000/year), zakat / charitable donations (fully deductible, no cap), provident fund contributions (subject to limits), and education allowance (up to 20% of salary or PKR 50,000/year). This calculator currently handles medical allowance and zakat / charitable donations. Consult a tax advisor for the full picture.
