How income tax on salary is calculated

Pakistan's salary tax is progressive, so each rate applies only to the income inside its band. On an annual salary of Rs 3,600,000 (Rs 300,000 a month), the calculation works like this:

Income in band (Rs)RateTax (Rs)
First 600,0000%0
Next 600,0001%6,000
Next 1,000,00011%110,000
Next 1,000,00020%200,000
Last 400,00025%100,000
Total416,000

The top rate reached is 25%, but the tax is 11.56% of the full salary. The calculator shows this same breakdown for your own income.

What each field means

  • Gross salary: your total pay before deductions, either monthly or yearly.
  • Annual bonus: added to your income for the year. For example, a Rs 300,000 bonus on a Rs 150,000 monthly salary lifts annual tax from Rs 72,000 to Rs 105,000.
  • Exempt allowances: any part of your pay that isn't taxed. If Rs 10,000 of a Rs 150,000 monthly salary is exempt, taxable income falls to Rs 1,680,000 and monthly tax falls from Rs 6,000 to Rs 4,900. Ask your payroll team what applies to you.
  • Other deductions: items such as a provident fund or EOBI. They reduce your take-home pay but not this tax estimate.

Why your payslip can look different

  • Your salary changed during the year, or you joined part-way through.
  • A bonus or arrears payment made your employer recalculate the tax for the remaining months.
  • Your employer treats some allowances differently from this estimate.
  • You have tax credits or deductions, such as Zakat, approved donations or a voluntary pension scheme.

To see your pay per week, day or hour, use the Salary Calculator. If you're thinking about taking a loan, compare the payment with your take-home pay using the Loan EMI Calculator.
