Did you know your employer also pays tax on your salary? It costs the employer ₨ 1,250 to pay you ₨ 55,000. In other words, every time you spend ₨ 10 of your hard-earned money, ₨ 0.30 goes to the government.
Real tax rate
2.9%
So, with you and the employer both paying tax, what used to be a 0.7% tax rate now rises to 2.9%, meaning your real tax rate is actually 2.2% higher than what it seemed at first.
Summary
If you make ₨ 660,000 a year living in the region of Khyber Pakhtunkhwa, Pakistan, you will be taxed ₨ 4,500. That means that your net pay will be ₨ 655,500 per year, or ₨ 54,625 per month. Your average tax rate is 0.7% and your marginal tax rate is 2.5%. This marginal tax rate means that your immediate additional income will be taxed at this rate. For instance, an increase of ₨ 100 in your salary will be taxed ₨ 2.50, hence, your net pay will only increase by ₨ 97.50.
Bonus Example
A ₨ 1,000 bonus will generate an extra ₨ 975 of net incomes. A ₨ 5,000 bonus will generate an extra ₨ 4,875 of net incomes.
