How Is Salary Tax Deducted?

Your employer calculates your estimated annual tax based on your salary and deducts it monthly. This is deposited to FBR on your behalf. However, even if your employer doesn't deduct tax, you are still responsible for declaring the income and paying any shortfall in your annual return.

How to Reduce Your Withholding Tax

If you've paid withholding tax from other sources (banking transactions, property, mobile recharges, etc.) and expect a refund at year-end, you don't have to wait:

1. Collect proof of all withholding tax deductions (bank certificates, telecom certificates, etc.)
2. Submit these to your employer
3. Your employer will reduce the monthly salary tax deduction by the amount already paid elsewhere

This means more take-home pay every month instead of waiting for an FBR refund.
