How tax on bank profit works in Pakistan
When your bank credits profit to a savings account, term deposit or certificate, it first deducts withholding tax under Section 151 of the Income Tax Ordinance and deposits it with FBR in your name. The rate depends only on whether you are on the Active Taxpayers List on the date the profit is paid.
Net profit = deposit ร rate ร (months รท 12) ร (1 โ 20% or 40%)
Example: Rs 2,000,000 in a 1-year term deposit at 10%
Gross profit is Rs 200,000. A filer has Rs 40,000 deducted and receives Rs 160,000. A non-filer has Rs 80,000 deducted and receives Rs 120,000 โ Rs 40,000 less on the same deposit.
Is the tax final?
For individuals and AOPs whose yearly profit is up to Rs 5 million, the deduction is a final tax: you declare the profit in your return but don't pay more on it, and you can't claim it back. Above Rs 5 million, the deduction becomes an advance tax adjusted in your return. If you missed being on the ATL when profit was paid, see our guide to restoring filer status.
