FBR rectifies mistake on tax number for Senator Faisal Javed Khan

Federal Board of Revenue (FBR) has admitted its mistake saying that it has incorrectly entered the tax details of Senator Faisal Javed.

FBR has clarified the news appearing in electronic media regarding the tax paid by Senator Faisal Javed after the issuance of the Tax Directory for Tax Year 2018 by FBR. Senator Faisal Javed also approached FBR and informed that his CNIC and tax paid have been incorrectly mentioned in the Tax Directory, said FBR.

Upon verification from record, it has been found that CNIC and tax paid by the Senator is correctly mentioned in the Tax Directory of all taxpayers for Tax Year 2018 at serial No. 499903, however Parliamentarians Directory contains incorrect details of his CNIC and tax payment.

The correct record shows tax of Rs. 46,127 paid by him. The Parliamentarians Directory has also been updated after correction. “FBR regrets the inconvenience caused to the Honourable Parliamentarian on this inadvertent mistake,” it said.
