What's new

17% GST on 144 items to yield Rs360 billion

.
tell this to those poor women who had their twin, triplets, mastectomy done or are unable to produce enough milk due to number of reasons. Tell them Formula Milk is a luxury item.

You are right here that PTI should impose 17%GST on luxury items.
On double roti/roti-like things for daily consumption are not luxury items.
On the other hand, if a mother is capable to feed her baby then the 'baby milk' is a luxury item and that should be taxed more to promote the natural way of feeding the baby. The 'mother's milk' is the basic human right of the baby apart if there is some medical issue. Nature/Medical Science promotes the mother's milk.

Brother for GOD sake, are you living in Pakistan? Most of those women you mentioned are not buying branded baby milk because they could not afford it but use ordinary cow's milk for their babies. As compared to the price of branded/formula milk, they could feed the single baby for approximately a month. In rural areas still, fresh cow's milk is available for less than Pak. Rs. 100/= per liter and even sometimes donated to poor families by the families not rich but with adequate resources.
This is the dilemma of most of the population of Pakistan that due to any medical reason those poor families never have access/ability to buy branded/formula milk.

Below is the link for your awareness

Anyone in Pakistan classifies themselves has poor
A guys got 4 ac’s running in his house and says he’s poor
13 rupees tax on a 700 bill, that is not bad,
 
.
This mini budget is introduced to meet IMF demands. We can thank the people who have looted and mismanaged the nation for so many years that we have to swallow this bitter pill today
 
.
Only 2% of workers pay tax, the rest is cash in hand, everyone needs to eat so the government will gain tax that way, again the poor always suffer,

Lets see this Tax on Poor shell we!!!

The government imposed Rs1 million per episode advance tax on foreign-produced TV serials, Rs3 million on foreign-produced TV dramas, and Rs0.5 million on advertisements starring foreign actors.s you can see

This is starting to take effect already as you can see from the responses by the Drama queens on this forum

1)Tax on poor

Imported live animals and poultry, imported branded meat, cow, buffalo, sheep, and goat, imported branded poultry meat,branded fish, imported branded.

Its a fact Poor people of Pakistan only wanted to buy imported Meat

2)Tax on Poor

The government through the mini-budget also increased Federal Excise Duty (FED) on import of cars (Completely Built Unit (CBU) over 1001cc to 1700cc from 5 percent ad valorem to 10 percent, from 1800cc to 3000cc from 25 percent ad valorem to 30 percent and exceeding 3000cc from 30 percent ad valorem to 40 percent ad valorem. On locally manufactured cars, there is no change up to 1000cc and from 1001cc to 2000cc,

I can provide proof that only poor Pakistanis were importing cars worth 100 to 200 million plus as they were not interested in local manufactured cars at all!!!

The government proposed 17 percent GST including imported plant and machinery, dairy products, meat/poultry, pharmaceutical raw materials, beauty products/food supplements, computers, baggage of overseas Pakistanis, cotton/sunflower/canola seeds, mobile phones (exceeding US$200), branded iodized salt, energy saver lamps/tube lights and imported remeltable scrap, jewelry and silver.

If you go to the local mall you will see poor Pakistanis coming out of BMW7i and buying imported makeup and beauty products costing more the 3 to 4 lakh plus items!!!


3)Tax on Poor

The sales tax on high-end phones (exceeding US$200) ranges between Rs1,750 to Rs9,270 per phone set. The mobile phones valuing more than $200 imported in the CBU condition has been charged to 17 percent sales tax.

I have seen poor daily workers in Pakistan only buying phone sets costing more than what they make in a month and now because of this additional tax that will cost them one year pay

4)Tax on Poor

The government has imposed 17 percent GST on import of certain items but their local supplies are exempted from sales tax including sugarcane, bread, live animals/poultry, fish, cereals, edible vegetables/fruit, sugar care/eggs, locally manufactured computers, compost (non-commercial fertilizer), eggs and meat of bovine animals.

Unfortunately, PTI Is going after Pakistani poor who were insisting on eating imported bread and cereals

5)Tax on Poor!

The import of pharmaceutical raw materials has been subjected to 17 percent sales tax, but the local supplies of the finished product i.e. medicine was brought at zero-rating.

This will result in drop in pharma prices but Poor billionaire pharma owners cannot hide their real income anymore and that will greatly effect these poor people)

6)Tax on Poor

The sales tax exemption on the import of crude oil has been replaced with sales tax zero-rating)


All those poor driving cars and SUVs will be very badly affected


7)Tax on poor!

Under the Bill 2021, the condition of the CNIC shall not apply for the general public in case a payment is made through the credit and debit card or digital mode under Section 23 of the Sales Tax Act 1990. However, the law which exonerated the seller from any liability where fake CNIC was provided by the purchaser in case of sale made in good faith has been omitted to check misuse.)

All poor Pakistani businessmen making millions per month, but hiding it with fake CNIC will now be subject to Income tax

8)Tax on Poor!


The government has also proposed levy of standard rate of 17 percent sales tax at import stage of following items; however, local supplies of these items will remain exempted.

These item included live animals and live poultry; meat of bovine animals, sheep, goat and uncooked poultry meat excluding those sold in retail packing under a brand name; fish and crustaceans excluding those sold in retail packaging under a brand name; live plants including bulbs, roots and the like; cereals other than rice, wheat, wheat and meslin flour; edible vegetables including roots and tubers, except ware potato and onions, whether fresh, frozen or otherwise preserved (e.g. in cold storage) but excluding those bottled or canned; edible fruits, sugar cane, compost (non-commercial fertilizer) and locally manufactured laptops, computers, notebooks whether or not incorporating multimedia kit and personal computers.)

This will help local industry and punish importers which is obviously bad news for poor millionaire Pakistanis

9)Horrible news keeps coming for poor


The federal government has also proposed withdrawal of reduced rate of sales tax from the following items.

These items are oilseeds meant for sowing; plant and machinery not manufactured locally and having no compatible local substitutes; flavored milk; yogurt; cheese; butter; cream; Desi Ghee; whey; milk and cream, concentrated or containing added sugar or other sweetening matter; ingredients of poultry feed, cattle feed, except soya bean meal of PCT heading 2304.0000 and oilcake of cotton-seed falling under PCT heading 2306.1000; incinerators of disposal of waste management, motorized sweepers and snow ploughs; supplies; import of remeltable scrap; frozen prepared or preserved sausages and similar products of poultry meat or meat offal; meat and similar products of prepared frozen or preserved meat or meat offal of all types including poultry, meat and fish.

Poor Pakistanis going to their winter resorts for annual holidays will now have to pay more for snow ploughing and imported sausages


10)Tax on Poor!


The zero rating of sales tax is also withdrawn from certain categories which include supplies to duty free shops, provided that in case of clearance from duty free shops against various baggage rules issued under the Customs Act, 1969, supplies from duty free shops shall be treated as import for the purpose of levy of sales tax; goods exempted under section 13, if exported by a manufacturer; local supplies of raw materials, components, parts and plant and machinery to registered exporters authorized under Export Facilitation Scheme, 2021 notified by the Board with such conditions, limitations and restrictions.”; supply, repair or maintenance of any ship which is neither; (a) a ship of gross tonnage of less than 15 LDT; nor (b) a ship designed or adapted for use for recreation or pleasure; supply of spare parts and equipment for ships; supply of equipment and machinery for salvage or towage services; supply of equipment and machinery for other services provided for the handling of ships in a port; bicycles.

Poor Pakistanis returning from European holidays costing millions will no longer allowed to use duty free shops without paying tax on goods


11)This will defiantly break the back or poor Pakistanis

Sales tax has been imposed on the goods imported by various agencies of the United Nations, diplomats, diplomatic missions, privileged persons and privileged organizations which are covered under various Acts and, Orders, rules and regulations made thereunder; and agreements by the Federal Government.

Sales tax has been proposed to be imposed on articles imported through post as unsolicited gifts, subject to the same conditions as are envisaged for the purposes of applying zero-rate of customs duty under the Customs Act, 1969; imported samples;

Honestly, you have no consideration for the poor BWN owner’s returning from Europe
 
.
did someone decide to copy Modi & india ?

Off topic, but since you brought Modi and India into this FYI. Modi govt created 5 slabs of GST in India 5%, 12%, 18%, and 28%. Almost all daily consumable goods and essential is charged 5% in very rare instance 12% max. Sadly in Pakistan where even basic necessities are being charged at 17%.
 
.
Contraceptives, formula milk and computer items were the only taxes I think are off
Other than that most of the taxes are on imported consumer items (Going by FM)
Not basic items!, Too much rr

Put more taxes should have been at least 50%. Because that is the only way an incompetent government behaves rather than exploring other venues of revenue generation or reducing expenses they go for the simplest and easiest way, TAX this ch****YA awam more. :-)

There are no poor in Pakistan.

If there were then this evil known as Imran Khan wouldn't still be in power and winning elections still.

Govt should tax them even more until they finally realize evil
