The sales tax on tea, both domestically grown and imported, has been raised by the Federal Board of Revenue (FBR).
The Economic Coordination Committee (ECC) recently reached this decision, which is a component of the government’s larger plan to improve revenue collection.
The tea sales tax, which is currently 17%, will increase to 18% under the new rules.
This change will affect tea drinkers nationwide and attempt to alleviate the government’s financial difficulties.
Millions of people in Pakistan drink tea every day, making it a staple beverage. The FBR’s decision is anticipated to have an impact on tea prices.
