So, with you and the employer both paying tax, what used to be a 4.6% tax rate now rises to 5.5%, meaning your real tax rate is actually 0.9% higher than what it seemed at first.
Summary
If you make ₨ 1,680,000 a year living in the region of Sindh, Pakistan, you will be taxed ₨ 78,000. That means that your net pay will be ₨ 1,602,000 per year, or ₨ 133,500 per month.
