Pakistan · Normal tax year 2026
1 July 2025 – 30 June 2026. Single-source individual estimate. No filing or payment is made.
Confirm that the scenario matches your circumstances, then calculate.

What to enter

The exemption and rate depend on the source of pension and the selected year. This calculator covers one ordinary former-employer pension in the confirmed scenario. Multiple pensions, continued work for the employer or associate, voluntary pension schemes, gratuity, commutation, survivor pensions and other income need separate review.

Tax year 2026: applicable rules

Finance Act 2025 reduced salary rates, introduced separate former-employer pension tax, and changed the salary surcharge to 9%. The statutory salary bases at PKR 3.2m and PKR 4.1m are PKR 346,000 and PKR 616,000.

Pension tax rules — TY2026; amounts in PKR
Annual income band / conditionCalculation
Annual pension up to PKR 10,000,0000
Above PKR 10,000,000; age below 705% of the excess above PKR 10,000,000
Age 70 or overExempt in the eligible scenario

This restricted pension calculation does not add normal-slab surcharge to the separate former-employer pension tax.

A worked example for TY2026

For an eligible 60-year-old with PKR 12,000,000 annual ordinary former-employer pension, the estimated tax is PKR 100,000.

What the estimate excludes

No withholding adjustment, tax credits, minimum tax, final/separate tax regimes, special exemptions, losses or super tax is computed. The tool stops above PKR 150 million. A monthly equivalent is annual estimated tax divided by 12, not a payroll withholding schedule. Results display two decimal places; filing-rounding rules are not applied automatically.
