About Pakistan Tax Calculator
Pakistan Tax Calculator is a free set of tax calculators for Pakistan, covering salary income tax, business and AOP income tax, sales tax on goods and services, and rental income tax — along with guides to the rules around them.
It exists because the existing options share two weaknesses. Several publish rates that are out of date, and almost none show their working, so you have no way to check a figure before acting on it. Every calculator here prints its slab-by-slab derivation, which means you can reconcile the answer against your own payslip, invoice or rent agreement rather than taking it on trust.
Who publishes this
This site is published by TODO: your name or registered business name. It went live on .
It is an independent project. It is not affiliated with, endorsed by, or operated by the Federal Board of Revenue or any provincial revenue authority, and it is not a firm of tax practitioners. Nobody is charged anything and no service is sold; the running costs are met by the advertising on the page.

Where the rates come from
Every rate on this site is taken from the slab tables published in the relevant Finance Act and the Schedules to the Income Tax Ordinance 2001, and each is cited on the page where it is used. The calculators currently implement:
- Salaried income tax for 5 tax years, from 2022-23 to 2026-27 — Division I, Part I of the First Schedule, withheld under section 149.
- Non-salaried and AOP income tax — the separate, steeper Division I schedule, plus the section 4AB surcharge.
- Sales tax — the federal rate under the Sales Tax Act 1990 and the provincial rates on services set by PRA, SRB, KPRA, BRA and for the Islamabad Capital Territory.
- Rental income — section 155 withholding from Division V, Part III of the First Schedule, and the section 15 liability after the deductions section 15A allows.
Rates were last reviewed on . That date is shown in the footer of every page, so you can always tell how current the figures are.
How the figures are checked
Accuracy here is not a claim, it is a process. Three things are done deliberately:
One source of truth for every rate
All slab tables live in a single file. No page, chart or article hard-codes a rate of its own, so a figure cannot be correct in one place and stale in another. The prose on each page computes its examples from the same engine the calculator uses.
Automated consistency checks
An automated test suite asserts that each slab table is internally consistent - that the fixed amount carried into every slab equals the tax accumulated by all the slabs beneath it. That is the exact defect that produces wrong published rate tables: a rate gets edited and the carried figures do not. The suite also checks the rates are progressive, that tax is continuous across every boundary with no cliffs, and that take-home plus tax plus deductions always reconciles to gross.
The working is always shown
Each calculator prints the slab-by-slab derivation of its result. You do not have to trust the number - you can check it against the published table by hand in under a minute.
What those checks cannot do is prove a table matches the statute — only that it is self-consistent. That is a human verification step, and the review date above is when it was last carried out.
What this site deliberately does not do
Being clear about the edges matters more than appearing comprehensive. The calculators model regular income for the common cases. They do not cover:
- Income from heads other than salary, business and property
- Capital gains on property or securities
- Foreign income, or the residency rules under section 82
- Partial-year employment, or the section 12(7) election for salary arrears
- Minimum tax on turnover under section 113 — flagged where turnover reaches the threshold, but not estimated, because it depends on sector-specific rates that turnover alone cannot determine
- Provincial property tax, which is a separate levy on annual rental value
- Non-salaried rates for tax years 2022-23 and 2023-24, which used a different pre-Finance Act 2024 structure that has not been verified line by line
Where something is excluded, the page says so rather than silently approximating it. A figure that looks authoritative but quietly omits a rule is worse than one that tells you its limits.
Corrections
If you find a figure you believe is wrong, please write to hello@yourdomain.pk with the calculator, the inputs you used and the figure you expected. Rate errors are treated as priority, and the review date is updated whenever a correction lands.
