Filer or non-filer in Islamabad
A non-filer buying a Rs 1 crore flat in Islamabad pays Rs 1,050,000 under 236K instead of Rs 125,000, and a higher stamp duty too. Becoming a filer before the transfer saves far more than it costs.
Which value is used
Tax is usually charged on the FBR valuation or DC rate of the property, or the declared price if higher. Check the latest FBR valuation table for your area before you budget.
Filer or non-filer
Non-filers pay much higher rates on property transfers. Becoming a filer before buying or selling can save lakhs on a single deal.
