FY 2025-26: SRB records highest-ever collection of Rs370.064bn

KARACHI: Sindh Revenue Board (SRB) has recorded its highest-ever annual revenue collection of Rs370.064 billion in the fiscal year 2025-26, up from Rs307.930 billion in FY 2024-25, a growth of 20.17 percent.

According to the official details, the collection under the Sindh Sales Tax (SST) rose to Rs344.602 billion, a 21.2 percent increase over the previous year’s Rs284.377 billion.

Similarly, revenue from the Sindh Workers’ Welfare Fund (SWWF) and Sindh Companies Profits Workers’ Participation Fund (SWPF) climbed to Rs24.435 billion from Rs22.253 billion, a growth of 10 percent.

The newly assigned Agricultural Income Tax (AIT), collected for the first time this fiscal year, crossed Rs1 billion.

The board also closed the year with its strongest single-month performance, collecting Rs45.08 billion in June 2026, which is the highest monthly collection in SRB’s history and a 28.3 percent jump over May 2026’s Rs35.15 billion.

SRB officials said the growth came despite headwinds including sluggish economic activity and the fallout of regional conflict on revenue collection in the second half of the fiscal year.

The board attributed its performance to the efforts of its staff, support from the Government of Sindh, and cooperation from taxpayers.
