SUBJEGT: NON FILING OF INCOME TAX RETURNS DESPITE EARNING

i TAXI\BLE

Kindly refer to the subject noted above.

Z. Section 114 o'f lncome Tax Ordinance, 2001 requires government.employees
earning taxable income to file their lncome Tax Returns. The compliance with this provision
of law is essential to ensure documentation of economy. However, contrary to this
requirement, it has come to the notice of Government of the Punjab that a large number of -

employees are not filing their lncome Tax Returns. They are underthe impression that there
is at source deduction of income tax on their salaries, hence filing of return is not called for.
This is a misconception, which is against the above provision of law.
3. Foregoing in view, all the officers / officials working under Government of the
Punjab are directed to fulfill their legal obligation of filing returns of their taxable income for
the year 2018. The lncome Tax Returns for the year 2018 ,qy be filed up to 02.08.2019,
i.e., the new deadline set by the FBR l'

4. The Administrative Departments are, therefore, required to re ng of

lncome Tax Returns by officers / officials under their administrative control 02,08.201 9.
All the Drawing & Disbursing / Controlling Officers may subsequently certify com CE

with the aforesaid direction has been achieved.
