When you sell a property in Pakistan and make a profit, the government applies Capital Gains Tax (CGT). This tax is calculated on the gain (profit) from the sale of immovable property — like plots, houses, or commercial real estate.
FilerNow helps you understand, calculate, and legally manage CGT so you can file your taxes correctly and avoid penalties.
What Is Capital Gains Tax on Property?
CGT is the tax you pay on the profit earned from selling a property. The rate and amount vary depending on:
The holding period (how long you owned the property)
Whether you’re a filer or non-filer
The type of property (plot, house, constructed/commercial)
