Tax slabs used in this calculator (salaried)
The calculator uses progressive tax slabs. That means each portion of income is taxed at the corresponding slab rate, not the entire income at one single rate.
| Taxable Income (PKR) | Rate / Formula |
|---|---|
| Up to 600,000 | 0% |
| 600,001 to 1,200,000 | 5% of amount above 600,000 |
| 1,200,001 to 2,200,000 | 30,000 + 15% of amount above 1,200,000 |
| 2,200,001 to 3,200,000 | 180,000 + 25% of amount above 2,200,000 |
| 3,200,001 to 4,100,000 | 430,000 + 30% of amount above 3,200,000 |
| Above 4,100,000 | 700,000 + 35% of amount above 4,100,000 |
Example calculation
Case: Monthly salary of PKR 250,000
If monthly income is PKR 250,000, annual income becomes PKR 3,000,000. With no exemptions, the tax is calculated progressively:
- 0% on first PKR 600,000 = PKR 0
- 5% on next PKR 600,000 = PKR 30,000
- 15% on next PKR 1,000,000 = PKR 150,000
- 25% on remaining PKR 800,000 = PKR 200,000
Total estimated annual tax = PKR 380,000

Frequently asked questions
Is this calculator official?
No. It is an educational estimator. Your final tax position should be verified according to current FBR rules and your complete income profile.
