What this result means
Pakistan applies salary tax progressively. A higher marginal rate does not apply to the entire salary—only to the income inside that band.
Marginal vs effective rate
The highest slice reaches 0%, but the overall effective rate is only 0%because lower slices are taxed at lower rates or not taxed.
Change from FY 2025–26
The FY 2026–27 monthly estimate is the same as the FY 2025–26 estimate of Rs 0. Any difference comes from the revised salary bands; no FY 2026–27 salaried surcharge applies.
