Pakistan Income Tax Calculator
Estimate your FY 2026-27 salaried income tax using the FBR slabs confirmed in the June 2026 federal budget, effective 1 July 2026.
What this calculator does
Estimates your Pakistan salaried-individual income tax liability under the FY 2026-27 FBR slabs, showing exactly how much falls into each progressive band.
Who this is for
Salaried employees in Pakistan estimating their tax bill for the new fiscal year, anyone comparing a job offer, or people wanting to check how this year's slab changes affect their take-home pay versus last year.
How this calculator works
Uses the FBR salaried-individual slabs for FY 2026-27 (1 July 2026 – 30 June 2027), confirmed in the federal budget presented 12 June 2026: 0% up to Rs 600,000, then seven progressive bands rising to 35% above Rs 7,000,000. The 9% surcharge that previously applied above Rs 10 million was abolished for salaried individuals starting this fiscal year.
Worked example
Rs 1,800,000 annual salary: this falls in the Rs 1,200,000–Rs 2,200,000 slab. Tax = Rs 6,000 base (accumulated from lower slabs) + 11% × (1,800,000 − 1,200,000) = 6,000 + (11% × 600,000) = 6,000 + 66,000 = Rs 72,000 total tax, an effective rate of about 4% on the full salary.

Common mistakes
- Using last year's slabs. FY 2026-27 cut rates across four bands compared to FY 2025-26 (e.g. the old 35% top band above Rs 4.1 million is now split into 29%/32%/35% tiers) — using stale figures overstates your tax.
- Applying the salaried slab to business income. Non-salaried individuals and AOPs face a steeper table (up to 70%) starting at the same Rs 600,000 threshold — the two are not interchangeable.
- Forgetting the surcharge no longer applies to salaried earners. The 9% surcharge above Rs 10 million income was scrapped for salaried individuals this fiscal year, though it remains for non-salaried filers.
- Applying the top slab rate to the whole salary. Only the portion of income within each slab is taxed at that slab's rate — your effective overall rate, like the 4% in the example above, is always lower than your top marginal slab rate.

Frequently Asked Questions
Why did tax slabs change for FY 2026-27?
The federal budget presented 12 June 2026 restructured four of the upper income bands, splitting the old 35% top tier (above Rs 4.1 million) into three separate tiers at 29%, 32%, and 35%, generally reducing tax for salaried individuals across those income levels compared to FY 2025-26.
What tax year does this use?
FY 2026-27 (1 July 2026 to 30 June 2027), using the salaried-individual slabs confirmed in the federal budget presented on 12 June 2026.
Is there still a surcharge on high incomes?
No. The 9% surcharge that applied to salaried individuals earning above PKR 10 million was abolished starting FY 2026-27. It still applies to non-salaried filers.
Does this apply to non-salaried or business income?
No, non-salaried individuals and AOPs face a separate, higher slab table with rates up to 70% on much lower thresholds — this calculator only models the salaried-individual slabs.
