The Central Board of Revenue (CBR) has issued the amended income tax challan-cum-payment form, specifying head of payment and rate of tax under relevant sections of the Income Tax Ordinance, 2001. The board on Tuesday has replaced old challan form for all categories of taxpayers with immediate effect.
Official sources told Business Recorder that the amended challan form would facilitate the business community. The new challan form also carry the "Payment Section Codes (Direct Taxes)", which would be used for improving the revenue reporting mechanism.
As soon as the tax is paid at the bank using specific codes, it would automatically provide online information to the CBR under the relevant head for entering into the Information Management System (IMS).
The new form has specified the type of the tax payment. For example, tax at the rate of 8 percent would be applicable to non-resident persons operating ships under section 7 of the Income Tax Ordinance, 2001. The unique thing about the revised challan is that it specifies the type and rate of tax for all types of tax payments for convenience of the taxpayers.
Now, the challan has simplified tax payment procedure. The payment type list would also help the taxpayers in case he is forgetting any head to pay the due amount. If one is service-provider, he would know about the tax rate.
Sources said the board has prescribed all rates of tax on a single page of the challan. Obviously, the depositor must know about the type of payment and relevant provision of the Income Tax Ordinance, 2001 before depositing the due amount.
Moreover, different rates of tax payments were revised in the budget 2006-07, which required immediate specification on the new challan. Following are the types of payments along with the tax rate and description of the tax as specified on the revised challan:
