Despite revisions to salary slabs in the Finance Act 2025, the Federal Board of Revenue (FBR) collected Rs. 138 billion from the salaried class in the first quarter of FY2025-26, compared to Rs. 110 billion during the same period last year. This marks an increase of nearly Rs. 20 billion, with the salaried class now contributing 29% — or Rs. 1,936 billion — of the total personal income tax collection. FBR data shows that the salaried class’s contribution to personal income tax has risen sharply over the years, from 10% in FY2018-19 to 29% in FY2024-25. While total FBR revenue nearly tripled in that time, from Rs. 3,829 billion to Rs. 11,744 billion, the salaried class’s share of total revenue remains modest at just 5%. Personal income tax as a whole now accounts for 16% of FBR’s total revenue, down from 19% in FY2018-19. #FBR #IncomeTax #SalariedClass #PakistanEconomy #FinanceNews #TaxCollection #CentralPakistan
