Input tax adjustment claims: FBR issues list of ‘HS codes’

Tax experts informed that all registered persons are allowed adjustments of input tax to the extent of 90 per cent under Section 8B and therefore, they are required to pay the minimum output of 10 per cent every month.

However, this minimum payment is subject to certain exclusions provided under notification 1190. Now a new entry is inserted to exclude the M/s PLL from mandatory payment of 10 per cent and allowing them full input tax adjustment of 100 per cent, they added.
