Withholding tax Tax deducted at source
Withholding tax is collected at source on specific payments and transactions (for example salary, contracts, banking, property and utilities) under the relevant sections of the Ordinance. These rates are not the income tax slabs above. Use FBR’s official rate card for this tax year:
