Removal of super tax, rationalisation of WHT on exporters recommended

The textile exporters, dairy, telecom, and real estate sector have strongly proposed that Finance Bill 2026 should reduce tax burden on documented sectors, including abolishing the super tax and reducing rates of Withholding Taxes (WHT) in the upcoming budget. During the Senate Standing Committee on Finance and Revenues which met under Chairmanship of Senator Saleem Mandviwalla here at the Parliament House on Thursday, the Telecom Operators Association on Thursday presented a detailed presentation and demanded of the government to abolish custom duty on import of 5G equipment as committed by the PM Shehbaz Sharif on the occasion of approving last spectrum auction.
