Capital Gain Tax Vs Construction Industry Relief Fund

According to the Press conference on April 3, 2020,  Prime Minister of Pakistan, Imran Khan, Announced the “comprehensive relief/stimulus package” for the construction sector and industry.

This is designed to prove to be a major tax relief package for the Construction Industry amidst this health crisis around the globe. The construction industry has the potential to provide employment to millions of people across all cities of the country. The overall sector, as well as the industry, is facing a serious debacle given the current lockdown, reduced demand, and reluctance of people to spend money. This package may change the game, however.

The incentive is designed to boost the industry and help the construction related businesses to expand. The expansion of the businesses in the construction sector is likely to fuel a major shift in the current level of infrastructure across the country.

The relief fund allows businesses that want to become a part of the Naya Pakistan Development and Housing Plan to enjoy major tax cuts and service subsidies. On the other hand, businesses and homeowners looking to develop their real estate and purchase land or already constructed houses may also do so without being questioned on their source of income under the FBR.

This allowance helps people to begin the construction through undeclared income if they should. This reduces the strain on the finances of construction-related entrepreneurs and stimulates the economy. 

The capital gain tax has been removed for investors looking to purchase property, in the shape of the land, constructed buildings, homes and so forth until June 2022. The final official statement from the FBR is yet to be released anyhow. There is no current official policy draft or proposal statement from the official bodies yet, as to how this will work and to what extent the relief will last.

The Capital Gain tax vs. Construction Relief Fund can be the push that our economy needs in the face of the global pandemic. Investors, business-minded people, and all potential home or property owners shall contact some of the top agents to help them facilitate through this exceptional deal. As forecasted by many economists and data journalists in the recent year, the FBR policies on tax law are only getting more and more strict.
