According to the PRA spokesperson, the PRA collected Rs118 billion in tax revenues from July to December of the current fiscal year, reflecting a 10.35% raise compared to the same period of the previous year. Notable contributions included an 8% increase in Punjab Sales Tax on Services, a 25% growth in the Punjab Infrastructure Development Cess, and an impressive 76% surge in the Punjab Workers Welfare Fund.
This outstanding performance was accomplished without introducing any new taxes or increasing tax rates.
