FBR aims to encourage greater compliance and engagement from individuals who have so far remained outside the purview of taxation.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Read: <\/strong><a href=\"https:\/\/www.zameen.com\/news\/fbr-revises-export-facilitation-scheme-2021.html\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">FBR amends Export Facilitation Scheme-2021<\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Following are the details of the changes made by FBR regarding tax deductions and rates as per the Finance Act 2023:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>Cash Withdrawals: There will be no tax deduction on cash withdrawals below PKR 50,000 per day. For non-filers or those not on the Active Taxpayers List (ATL), the bank will deduct PKR 303 on cash withdrawals of PKR 50,500 per day, and the deduction will increase with higher withdrawal amounts. Exemption from tax deduction is available to federal and provincial governments, foreign diplomats, diplomatic missions, and individuals with a certificate of tax year income exemption.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Immovable Property: Withholding tax rates on the sale and purchase of immovable property have been increased from 2% to 3% for ATL persons and 6% for non-ATL persons. Similarly, the withholding agent will collect 3% or 7.5% tax on the fair market value from the purchaser on ATL or non-ATL, respectively.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Motor Vehicles: The fixed tax amount on motor vehicles with an engine capacity of 2001cc and above has been replaced with a tax rate of 6%, 8%, and 10% based on the engine capacity (for ATL persons). For non-ATL persons, the rates will be increased by 200%, i.e., 18%, 24%, and 30%.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Payments to Non-Resident Pakistanis: Withholding tax rates on payments to non-residents through a debit\/credit card have been increased to 5% for ATL persons and 10% for non-ATL persons to discourage unnecessary foreign exchange outflow.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Domestic Aide Visa: A new section, 231C, has been introduced, where an advance tax of PKR 200,000 will be collected and deposited by any Pakistan authority issuing or renewing a domestic aide visa to a foreign domestic worker. This tax is adjustable against the tax liability assessed for a tax year.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Read: <\/strong><a href=\"https:\/\/www.zameen.com\/news\/updated-sales-tax-federal-excise-act.html\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">FBR shares details on updated Sales Tax, Federal Excise Acts<\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>These changes aim to streamline tax collections and encourage compliance while addressing specific concerns in different sectors.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>In the wake of the recent development, the FBR endeavours to boost tax compliance and engagement among individuals who have thus far remained outside the realm of taxation.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":88,"featured_media":75334,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_acf_changed":false,"footnotes":""},"categories":[15015],"tags":[54453,57257,2032],"persona":[],"class_list":{"0":"post-94345","1":"post","2":"type-post","3":"status-publish","4":"format-standard","5":"has-post-thumbnail","7":"category-legal-taxation","8":"tag-fbr-news-and-updates","9":"tag-legal","10":"tag-taxation-2","11":"cat-15015-id"},"acf":[],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO plugin v27.2 - https:\/\/yoast.com\/product\/yoast-seo-wordpress\/ -->\n<title>FBR&#039;s Tax Hike Aims Economic Growth - Zameen News<\/title>\n<meta name=\"description\" content=\"FBR&#039;s recent tax hike indicates economic growth as it brings non-active taxpayers into the list, and their track is easy to keep.\" \/>\n<meta name=\"robots\" content=\"index, follow, max-snippet:-1, max-image-preview:large, max-video-preview:-1\" \/>\n<link rel=\"canonical\" href=\"https:\/\/www.zameen.com\/news\/fbrs-tax-hike-aims-economic-growth.html\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:locale\" content=\"en_US\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:type\" content=\"article\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:title\" content=\"FBR&#039;s Tax Hike Aims Economic Growth - Zameen News\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:description\" content=\"FBR&#039;s recent tax hike indicates economic growth as it brings non-active taxpayers into the list, and their track is easy to keep.\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:url\" content=\"https:\/\/www.zameen.com\/news\/fbrs-tax-hike-aims-economic-growth.html\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:site_name\" content=\"Pakistan Real Estate News &amp;
