About PK Tax Calc

PK Tax Calc helps salaried employees, freelancers, small business owners and families in Pakistan answer everyday money questions quickly: how much tax comes off a salary, what a non-filer pays extra, how much Zakat is due on savings and gold. Each calculator is paired with a plain-English explanation of the rule behind it, so you can check the working rather than trust a number blindly.

PK Tax Calc is an independent website. We don't present the site as professional tax or religious advice — which is why every page links to its sources and tells you when to check with FBR, a tax adviser or a scholar.

• Income tax slabs come from the rates schedule of the current Finance Act (Finance Act 2026 for Tax Year 2027). We update them after each federal budget is passed.
• Withholding tax rates come from the First and Tenth Schedules of the Income Tax Ordinance 2001 as amended, and FBR's withholding rate card.
• Deadlines and circulars are checked against FBR announcements; for example, the extension of the 2026 return deadline to 15 October.
• Gold and silver prices used as defaults in the Zakat calculators are Sarafa benchmark rates on a stated date. You can always type today's rate.
• Zakat rules follow the approach most widely used in Pakistan (Hanafi). Where schools differ, such as Zakat on jewellery, we say so.

Every calculator and guide shows a "last reviewed" date. The current rates were last reviewed on 3 October 2026; default metal prices are from 3 October 2026.

Tax rules change often and mistakes happen. If you find a figure that doesn't match FBR's publications or your payslip, please contact us with the page and, if possible, the source. We check every report and correct confirmed errors, updating the page's review date.

The calculators run entirely in your browser — the salary, savings or gold figures you type are never sent to us. The site is free to use with no sign-up. To cover running costs we may show advertising; ads never influence our figures. See the privacy policy.
