As September 30, deadline for filing income tax return 2025 approaches, Pakistani taxpayers are hoping for a possible extension, given the current challenges posed by devastating floods and technical issues with the Federal Board of Revenue (FBR) IRIS portal.
"FBR remains committed to facilitate taxpayers in all possible ways and urges all eligible taxpayers to file their Income Tax returns correctly and with honesty at the earliest as the deadline for filing is 30th September, 2025," read a statement issued by the revenue board.
It should be noted that the dealine for individual income tax returns and AOPs is September 30, 2025; while corporate tax filing deadline for companies with regular tax years is December 31, 2025.
Earlier, as per the recommendations of a high-powered government committee, which were subsequently approved by Prime Minister Muhammad Shehbaz Sharif, the FBR decided to delete the column for estimated fair market value from the income tax return forms for this year.
In an official statement, the FBR said: "In pursuance of the directions of the Honourable prime minister, and keeping in view the difficulties being faced by taxpayers, the column of ‘Estimated Fair Market Value’ has been removed from the Income Tax Return."
The FBR clarified that the column was intended solely for data collection to support the Economic Survey and did not affect the assessment of income or tax liability.
