ISLAMABAD, (APP):<\/strong> <\/p>\n\n\n\n

The Federal Board of Revenue (FBR) has collected Rs7,176 billion during the first seven months of the current fiscal year (FY2026), registering a growth of 10.57 percent compared to Rs6,490 billion collected in the corresponding period of last year, reflecting an improving revenue trajectory amid ongoing economic recovery.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The board revenue collection in January 2026 records robust growth of 16% month on month surpassing six-month average growth of 10 to 11% reflecting a clear encouraging path for the remaining months of FY-2026, said a news release here on Saturday.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The provisional collection stood at Rs.1015 billion against the collection of Rs.873 billion last year.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

This month\u2019s tax performance reveals a nuanced and strategically significant fiscal outcome, characterized by substantial increase in direct taxation, modest growth in indirect and excise streams, and an overall healthy and improved performance in January 2026. It also reinforces the credibility of reform-driven revenue mobilization and transformation plan of FBR.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The collection from income tax has shown significant improvement and has reached ?. 483 billion against collection of ?. 381 billion, representing a 26% impressive growth over previous year.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

This improved revenue collection performance is not incidental but reflects the structural impact of the FBR\u2019s reforms especially its enhanced enforcement measures and coordinated effort to realize the collection stuck in litigation.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Sales tax collections in January stood at ?. 360 billion against collection of ?. 322 billion showing growth of  12% over previous year.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

This trend is reflective of recovery and improvement in large scale manufacturing (LSM) growth which is a very positive and encouraging development.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

January\u2019s results validate FBR\u2019s reform-driven transformation plan. By leveraging digital infrastructure and the collection through enforcement measures, FBR is improving compliance, expanding and deepening the tax net, and fostering taxpayer trust.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

This performance in direct taxes signals emerging behavioural shifts toward greater voluntary compliance, with potential spill over benefits in coming months.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

FBR has collected Rs. 7,176 billion  in the first seven months of the current FY 2026 against the collection of Rs.6,490 billion last year.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

FBR is optimistic that the growth recovery trends in LSM will continue which will help it in achieving the revenue targets for the current fiscal year. Team FBR is fully committed to continue this momentum of growth in the remaining months.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
