What changes if you're not salaried?
Earning the same PKR 6,30,000 a month as a business owner or self-employed professional puts you under the non-salaried slab table — bracket rates rise meaningfully. IT exporters under the export-services regime go the other way: a flat 0.25% (PSEB-registered) or 1% (unregistered) on foreign-currency receipts.
