- Status: Valid for Tax Year 2026
- Eligibility: Annual Turnover up to 250 Million PKR
1. SME Tax Regime Kya Hai? (Definition 2026)
Tax kanoon (Income Tax Ordinance) ke mutabiq, wo karobar jin ki salana sale (turnover) 250 million PKR (25 crore) se kam ho, wo SME category mein aatay hain.
- Kyun register hon?
- Audit se Tahaffuz: Agar aap FTR (Final Tax Regime) chunte hain, to aapka audit nahi hota.
- Low Tax Rates: Corporate sector ke muqablay mein SME par tax ki sharah boht kam hai.
- Ease of Doing Business: Single-page return filing ki sahulat.
SMEs ke paas do ikhtiyar (options) hotay hain. Apne karobar ki nature ke mutabiq sahi chunao karen:
- A. Final Tax Regime (FTR) – "No-Hassle Option"
- Is mein tax aapke total sale (turnover) par lagta hai. Is ka sab se bara faida yeh hai ke is mein kisi kisam ka audit nahi hota.
| Category | Annual Turnover | Tax Rate |
| Category 1 | Rs. 100 Million tak | 0.25% |
| Category 2 | Rs. 100M - 250M | 0.5% |
- Tip: Agar aapka profit margin boht kam hai (e.g., Trading business), to FTR aapke liye best hai kyunke turnover par tax dena munafay par tax dene se sasta parta hai.
- B. Normal Tax Regime (NTR)
- Is mein tax aapke saafi munafay (net profit) par lagta hai.
| Category | Annual Turnover | Tax Rate on Net Profit |
| Category 1 | Rs. 100 Million tak | 7.5% |
| Category 2 | Rs. 100M - 250M | 15% |
- Tip: Agar aapka business start-up hai ya aapke expenses boht zyada hain aur profit boht kam, to NTR aapke liye behtar ho sakta hai.
FBR ne SMEs ko promote karne ke liye naye reforms mutarif karwaye hain:
- Single-Page Return: Aise manufacturers jin ki sale 5 crore (50M) tak hai, wo sirf aik safhay ka return file kar sakte hain. IRIS portal par "SME Return Form" select karen.
- Minimum Tax se Choot: SMEs par turnover par lagne wala izafi 'Minimum Tax' (Section 113) lagu nahi hota, jo bari companies ke liye boht bari pareshani hai.
- IT Start-ups ke liye Riyayat: Agar aap tech start-up hain aur PSEB (Pakistan Software Export Board) se registered hain, to aap 3 saal tak 100% tax credit hasil kar sakte hain.
- Sales Tax Exemption: SMEs manufacturer ke liye sales tax registration ki shart ko boht asaan kar diya gaya hai.
