How to Calculate Gain Tax

Capital Gain = Sale Price − Purchase Price

Then:

Gain Tax = Capital Gain × Applicable Tax Rate

Example:
Securities bought at Rs 100,000 and sold after 1.3 years at Rs 150,000.
Holding period = 1.3 years → tax rate = 12.5%.

• Capital Gain = Rs150,000 – Rs100,000 = Rs50,000
• Tax = Rs50,000 × 12.5% = Rs6,250

FAQs

What is the Gain Tax on Properties?

Capital gains tax on property works similarly: the difference between the sale and purchase price, with rates depending on the holding period. Longer-held properties generally attract lower or zero tax. For detailed calculations and slabs, see our Gain Tax on Properties calculator.

Is there any tax on inherited property in Pakistan?

Yes. When you sell inherited property, capital gains tax applies. The gain is calculated based on the original purchase price of the donor/inheritor and your holding period. No tax is due if the sale occurs after the exemption period (typically over 6 years), but checking current slabs is advised.

Who pays capital gains tax on property sales?

The seller is responsible. It’s their gain from the sale that’s taxable.

How to legally avoid or reduce gain tax in Pakistan?

• Hold longer — longer holding periods reduce or eliminate tax.
• Use exemptions—primary residence and certain transfers may be exempt.
• Invest proceeds — rollover tax reliefs may apply if you reinvest.

Always seek advice from a qualified tax consultant to optimize based on current legislation.
