FAQS

What is Tax Credit / Rebate?

Tax credit is tax saving that you can get on your income tax for the year if you invest in pension schemes. This facility can be availed by both salaried and self-employed individuals in accordance with the Income Tax Ordinance, 2001.

The amount of tax credit you are entitled to will be adjusted from your payable annual income tax thus giving you an overall tax saving.

Investment in Pension Schemes:

For example, if you are a salaried individual and your annual taxable income for the year is Rs.4,650,000, your average tax rate will be 14.35%. You can avail a maximum tax credit of Rs.133,500 by investing Rs.930,000 in pension scheme.

The maximum tax benefit that an individual can get is up to 20% of his or her annual taxable income times his or her tax rate.
