The name is self-explanatory, don't you think? In financial terms, It is the tax you pay to your government on your salary, which is taxable income. It is determined by a regulatory body, in this case, the FBR — Federal Board of Revenue.

You are obliged to pay your income tax on either a monthly or a quarterly basis. A tax year in Pakistan comprises 12 months, starting from July 1^st of a year and ending on June 30^th of the next. We denote it by the later year. For instance, the tax year 2022 is from July 1^st, 2021, to June 30^th, 2022. It means that our income tax for Pakistan calculator's tax year 2023 is from July 1^st, 2022, to June 30^th, 2023.

Some companies/employers deduct this tax from the salary every month and bare the responsibility of paying it on your behalf. This method of paying the tax is known as "withholding tax". This payment, like any other tax, is paid to the government and is based on the rules and regulations set by them.

If your employer is not registered with the FBR, you must pay the tax yourself by registering yourself with the FBR. They issue you an NTN (National Tax Number) number which is like an identification number for taxpayers.

On a side note, we have a tax bracket calculator, and with it, you can easily check which tax bracket you are in and find the federal income tax on your income.

To calculate the tax on your monthly salary, you need two things:

• Your taxable income (monthly salary); and
• An income tax chart.

You can calculate your monthly or yearly income tax by following a few simple steps.

1. Note down your monthly income.

2. Multiply it by 12 for the number of months in a year, and you have your yearly salary.

3. Once you calculate your yearly salary, tally the amount with the slabs on an income tax chart for the desired year.

4. If you match with slabs from 3 to 7, you will have 2 different tax amounts. One is fixed, and the other is a percentage.

5. Carefully determine the percentage and add it to the fixed tax value.

6. The result is your yearly income tax.

7. You may divide the yearly income tax by 12 to get the monthly income tax.

And if all these steps sound like head-scratchers, then just use "the income tax calculator for Pakistan" and let us take care of the rest.

An income tax return is the record of the tax you pay on your income.

An individual is responsible for filing his tax returns with the FBR (Federal Board of Revenue) via a form, also known as FBR income tax return, now available on government portals online. This form contains information regarding the following:

• Your income sources;
• Income tax;
• Gain or loss on your assets;
• Tax chargeable payments, like GST (Goods and Services Tax);
• The withholding tax and refunds; and
• Foreign income (if any).

The focus of the income tax calculator for Pakistan is to determine the income tax payable on your salary. To file your tax, refer to the FBR official website.

If this is your monthly salary, it makes your yearly salary Rs. 3,000,000, then you have to pay a yearly tax of Rs. 285,000.

But if this is your yearly salary, then you do not have to pay any tax on it as the minimum taxable income is Rs. 600,000.

To calculate your yearly tax, follow the steps:

1. Multiply your monthly salary by 12.
2. Compare the amount in the table to determine which slab your salary falls in.

3. Determine the percentage based on the slab.
4. Add the result to the fixed tax of your slab.
5. The result is the yearly tax on your income.

According to Pakistan's rules and laws, you must pay your income tax monthly or quarterly. But not yearly. Because after a year, the government can fine you for not paying your tax on time.

Yes, paying your income tax is as important as paying any other tax.

It is a significant source of finance for the government as they use it for many public services like funding government obligations and public services, providing goods and daily life services for the citizens of the country or their particular jurisdiction.
