Need your 2025-26 return filed?

Your employer deducting tax is not the same as filing. We file salaried returns and wealth statements for a fixed, published fee.

Frequently asked questions

How much tax is deducted from a Rs. 100,000 monthly salary in 2025-26?

Rs. 500 a month, or Rs. 6,000 for the year, leaving a take-home of Rs. 99,500 a month. That is an effective rate of 0.5% on Rs. 1,200,000 of annual salary.

What is the tax-free salary limit in 2025-26?

Annual taxable salary up to Rs. 600,000 (Rs. 50,000 a month) is not taxed. Above that the slabs apply only to the part of your salary falling in each band.

Is there a surcharge on salary in 2025-26?

Yes. A 9% surcharge is added to the tax of salaried individuals whose taxable income exceeds Rs. 10,000,000.

Who counts as salaried for these slabs?

You are taxed on the salaried slabs when salary makes up more than 75% of your taxable income. If it is less, the non-salaried (business) slabs apply instead, and they are considerably higher.

When is the income tax return deadline for tax year 2026?

The return for 2025-26 is due by 30 September 2026 unless FBR extends it. Tax deducted by your employer does not replace filing: you still need to file to stay on the Active Taxpayers List.
