How it works
In Pakistan, employers deduct income tax at source from salaried individuals under Section 149 of the Income Tax Ordinance, 2001. Because Pakistan uses a progressive marginal tax slab system (where salary up to Rs. 600,000 per year / Rs. 50,000 per month is exempt from income tax, and higher brackets apply a fixed base tax plus a marginal percentage on the amount exceeding the slab threshold), calculating your exact monthly withholding tax by hand is error-prone.
How FBR Salaried Income Tax Is Calculated
- Step 1 - Annualization: Your gross monthly taxable salary (including basic pay and taxable allowances) is multiplied by 12 to determine your annual taxable salary.
- Step 2 - Progressive Slab Application: Annual income up to PKR 600,000 (PKR 50,000/month) carries 0% tax. Above PKR 600,000, progressive FBR slabs apply up to the top marginal bracket on annual income exceeding PKR 4,100,000 (plus applicable high-earner surcharge where annual taxable salary exceeds PKR 10 million).
- Step 3 - Monthly Deduction: Total annual tax liability is divided by 12 and withheld evenly from each monthly paycheck.
