Islamabad: Federal Board of Revenue (FBR) ne Active Taxpayer’s List (ATL) system ki efficiency aur responsiveness ko barhawa dene ke liye Income Tax Rules 2002 mein tabdeeli ki hai. Yeh tabdeeli S.R.O. 1638(I)/2024 ke zariye 18 October 2024 ko notify ki gayi, jise aik press release mein share kiya gaya.
Naye rules ke mutabiq, ab ATL ko rozana update kiya jaye ga jo ke pehle weekly update hota tha. Yeh adjustment is baat ko ensure karegi ke jo taxpayers apne filing obligations ko pura karte hain, unka naam foran ATL mein aajaye, jo ke real-time accuracy aur compliance ko barhawa dega.
Ab jo taxpayers latest tax year (2024) ka Income Tax Return (ITR) due date ya kisi bhi extension ke andar file karenge, unka naam foran ATL mein shamil ho jayega. Iske ilawa, jo taxpayers apne returns due date ke baad file karenge, woh section 182A mein diya gaya surcharge ada karke ATL mein shamil ho sakte hain.
Pehle jo ATL ka annual update March mein hota tha, woh ab revise kiya gaya hai. Ab ATL mein kisi taxpayer ka naam foran ITR file karne par shamil ho jayega, jo ke compliance ka timely recognition ko ensure karega.
In changes ka maksad FBR ke operations ki transparency aur efficiency ko behtar banana hai. Rozana update aur zyada dynamic approach adopt karke FBR taxpayers ki sahulat ko madd-e-nazar rakh raha hai aur tamam stakeholders ke liye asaani paida kar raha hai.
