Did you know your employer also pays tax on your salary? It costs the employer ₨ 1,250 to pay you ₨ 164,000. In other words, every time you spend ₨ 10 of your hard-earned money, ₨ 0.66 goes to the government.
Real tax rate
6.5%
So, with you and the employer both paying tax, what used to be a 5.8% tax rate now rises to 6.5%, meaning your real tax rate is actually 0.7% higher than what it seemed at first.
Summary
If you make ₨ 1,968,000 a year living in the region of Khyber Pakhtunkhwa, Pakistan, you will be taxed ₨ 114,000. That means that your net pay will be ₨ 1,854,000 per year, or ₨ 154,500 per month. Your average tax rate is 5.8% and your marginal tax rate is 12.5%. This marginal tax rate means that your immediate additional income will be taxed at this rate.
