Under the watchful eye of the International Monetary Fund, the government projected growth of 4.2 per cent and set an ambitious tax collection target at Rs14,131 billion, an 8.95pc increase from last year’s goal.

*The calculator has been updated on Jun 19, 2025 at 12pm PST to reflect a tax rate of 1% on annual income exceeding Rs600,000 up to Rs1.2 million. Earlier, the federal cabinet’s decision to increase government workers’ salaries by 10pc — up from the originally proposed 6pc — necessitated a change in the income tax rate for this bracket to 2.5% instead of the 1% stated in the Finance Bill, finance ministry officials had said in their post-budget press conference. The prime minister has since stated that the rate will be kept at 1%.
