ISLAMABAD: In the midst of continuing efforts to expand the tax network to increase revenue, it has come to light that the country’s leased order has contributed more than twice the tax amount to the national kitten compared to the combined contribution of exporters and 20s. The news reported on Thursday.

The Federal Revenue Council (FBR) has collected a historical tax of 545 billion Rs by the employees’ class during the latest use ended on June 30, 2025, thus becoming the highest contributors among all other areas due to direct taxes.

Only, the contribution of the leased order due to income tax was more than three times that of exporters. Compared to retailers, the leased class paid eight times more.

Exporters have paid a tax amount of $ 180 billion in the latest use despite winning dollars. Retail traders who are politically linked to all political forces, regardless of any gap, have paid 62 billion Rs below 236 g and H the income tax decree.

“Overall, the salaried class has paid more than twice the amount as an income tax during the latest use compared to the combined tax contributions from exporters and retailers,” the top official sources confirmed while speaking in the publication.

The salaried class paid 545 billion Rs in the financial year 2024-25 against the RS367 billion in the previous financial year 2023-24, indicating that the leased departments paid $ 178 billion from July 2024 to June 20 to 2025.

It is important to mention here that the multi -level Tajir Dost (TDS) system, which started for retailers during the latest use, has failed to entice retailers despite high allegations, but now the FBR plans to tighten its female against those who prefer to stay out of the tax.

The FBR has brought revenue through the 236G and 236h section from retailers during the last financial year.

According to Article 236G, the FBB imposed a 2% tax on the gross amount of the sales of distributors, representatives and wholesalers in addition to selling fertilizers.

According to Article 236h, on the gross amount of retailers, the 2.5% tax rate would be charged by those who would prefer to stay out of the tax network. These two steps in the form of 236g and 236h forced the non-thousands to come to the tax net instead of paying tax on their gross amount.

This scribe contacted the FBR spokesman and the tax policy of members Dr Najeeb Memon and asked about the contribution of the leased class. He said that taking into account the realities of the ground, the FBR has reduced the tax rates for the first two plates.

He said the tax rate for the first plate earned from RS0.6 million to RS1.2 million was reduced from 5 to 1%. For the second plate, the tax rate was reduced from 15 to 11% for income income, which ranges over 1.2 million Rs to RS2.2 million on an annual basis. It was of the opinion that the wage class was expected to relieve 50 billion Rs in the current financial year 2025-26.

As for another question about retailers, he said the imposition measures would give results, as it would not be possible for the potential tax release to remain out of the tax network if they were interested in keeping money in bank deposits, buying properties or buying new cars.
