SuperTax

The Super Tax is a supplementary income tax imposed on high-income individuals, Associations of Persons (AOPs), and corporations pursuant to section 4c of the Income Tax Ordinance. It primarily targets individuals with an annual income exceeding Rs.150 million, employing a progressive rate structure depending on total income.

On January 26, 2026, the Federal Constitutional Court affirmed the super tax, anticipated to generate revenue of Rs. 300 billion for the public exchequer.

The court ruled to dismiss the taxpayers’ challenges against section 4B and affirmed the constitutional validity of section 4B as a tax.
