The National Board of Revenue (NBR) will honour 141 top taxpayers with tax cards as recognition of highest tax payment at national level in their respective sectors.
It will also award 525 taxpayers for highest tax payment at district and city-corporation levels.
The NBR issued two separate statutory regulatory orders (SROs) with the names of top taxpayers under different categories on Wednesday.
The NBR selected the taxpayers as per the National Tax Card Policy-2010 (amended) and the District-level Highest and Long-term Taxpayers Policy-2008.
But the highest taxpayers in legal dispute have been dropped from the winners list as per the policies.
Based on income tax payment in fiscal year 2021-22, a total of 141 taxpayers-76 individuals, 53 companies and 12 in other categories-won the tax card.
