Salaried logon ke liye income tax slabs
ATL Kya Hai?
ATL ka matlab hai Active Taxpayer List. Ye FBR (Federal Board of Revenue) ki official list hai. Is list mein un logon ke naam hote hain jo abhi filer maane jaate hain, aur is se bank, property aur gaari ke len-den mein filer ki sahulatein milti hain.
Asaan lafzon mein: agar aap ne waqt par income tax return jama karaya hai, to aap filer hain. Filer ka naam ATL mein aata hai. Jis ka naam is mein nahi hota, use non-filer samjha jata hai.
Property ke kaam mein ye bohat zaroori hai. Registry, intiqal (transfer) ya sale deed se pehle buyer aur seller dono ka ATL status dekha jata hai.
Active Taxpayer List (ATL) Mein Naam Kaise Check Karein: 3 Asaan Tareeqe
FBR ke mutabiq Active Taxpayer status teen tareeqon se check ho sakta hai: online portal, SMS, aur ATL download kar ke. Teeno tareeqe free hain.
Tareeqa 1: FBR Online Portal Se ATL Status Check
Ye sab se mashhoor tareeqa hai.
- Apne mobile ya computer par browser kholein aur fbr.gov.pk par jayein.
- “Online Services” ke neeche “Online Verification Portal” par click karein, phir “Active Taxpayer List (Income Tax)” chunein. zameen
- Apna 13 digit ka CNIC likhein (company ya AOP ke liye NTN).
- Captcha code likhein aur “Search” dabayein.
- Screen par aap ka naam aur status aa jayega: Active, Inactive ya Not Found.
Tip: CNIC bina dashes (-) ke likhein. Ye choti si ghalti aksar “Not Found” ki wajah banti hai.
Tareeqa 2: SMS Se ATL Check Karein (9966)
Agar internet nahi hai, to SMS sab se tez hai.
Apne mobile ke message mein “ATL” likhein, ek space dein, phir apna 13 digit CNIC likhein, aur ye message 9966 par bhej dein.
Misal ke taur par: ATL 3520212345671 aur ise 9966 par send karein. Thori der mein jawab aa jata hai.
Agar aap AJK ke NTN holder hain, to “AJKATL” likh kar space dein, phir 11 digit NTN (bina dashes) likh kar 9966 par bhejein.
Tareeqa 3: ATL List Download Karein
FBR poori list download karne ka option bhi deta hai. FBR ke download page par list ke saath update ki tareekh bhi likhi hoti hai.

ATL Result Ka Matlab Kya Hai?
| Result | Matlab | Aap ko kya karna hai |
|---|---|---|
| Active | Aap filer hain | Property deal beghair fikr ke karein |
| Inactive | Return jama nahi hua ya mukammal nahi | Foran return file karein |
| Not Found | Naam list mein nahi | CNIC dobara check karein, warna return file karein |
Naam Kyun Nahi Milta? 5 Aam Wajohat
Bohat se log kehte hain, “Maine return file kiya tha, phir bhi naam nahi aaya.” Aksar in mein se koi ek wajah hoti hai:
- Return abhi process nahi hua. File karne ke baad list mein naam aane mein thora waqt lagta hai.
- Return adhoora hai. Koi zaroori form ya detail reh gayi ho.
- CNIC ghalat likha gaya. Ek number bhi ghalat ho to result nahi aata.
- Registration mein purana ya ghalat CNIC hai. Ye kam hota hai magar hota hai.
- Is saal ka return jama hi nahi hua.
Agar sab theek lage phir bhi naam na aaye, to apne tax consultant se baat karein ya FBR helpline se rabta karein.
Property Mein ATL Itna Zaroori Kyun Hai?
Farz karein ek bhai Lahore mein 1 crore ka plot khareedta hai aur doosra bhai 1 crore ka plot bechta hai. Dono ka ATL status alag ho to tax mein zameen-aasman ka farq aa jata hai.
Tax Year 2027 (1 July 2026 se 30 June 2027) mein ATL par maujood property seller 236C ke tahat 2.75% deta hai, aur buyer 236K ke tahat 1.25% deta hai. Non-filer ke liye ye rates kafi zyada hain, jaise sale par 11.5%. ict
Filer Aur Non-Filer Property Tax: Ek Nazar Mein
| Tax | Filer (ATL par) | Non-Filer |
|---|---|---|
| Seller (Section 236C) | 2.75% | 11.5% |
| Buyer (Section 236K) | 1.25% | 10.5% se 18.5% tak (property ki value ke hisaab se) |
Ye rates Finance Act 2026 ke baad ke hain. Rates budget ke dauran kai baar badle, is liye deal se pehle FBR ya apne tax consultant se confirm zaroor karein.
Rupees Mein Misal
- 1 crore ka plot, seller filer: 2.75% = Rs 2,75,000
- 1 crore ka plot, seller non-filer: 11.5% = Rs 11,50,000
- Farq: Rs 8,75,000
Aur buyer ke liye: 20 lakh ki property par filer buyer ka tax Rs 25,000 banta hai, jabke non-filer ko 10.5% ke hisaab se Rs 2,10,000 dene parte hain.
Yani ek chota sa return file karna lakhon bacha sakta hai.
Ek Achi Khabar: Late Filer Category Khatam
Pehle teen category thin: filer, late filer aur non-filer. Ab 2026-27 mein late filer wali category effectively khatam kar di gayi hai, aur zyada tar lenden filer ya non-filer ki bunyad par hote hain. Is ka matlab hai ke ya to aap ATL mein hain, ya nahi.
ATL Mein Shamil Hone Ka Naya Surcharge
Agar aap ka naam ATL mein nahi hai aur aap phir bhi banking, gaari ki registration ya property jaisa kaam karna chahte hain, to ek ATL surcharge lagta hai. Finance Bill 2026 ke tahat individuals ke liye ye surcharge Rs 1,000 se barh kar Rs 25,000 kar diya gaya hai, aur ye 1 July 2026 se laagu hai.
Is liye ab non-filer rehna pehle se kahin zyada mehnga hai.
Agar Aap ATL Mein Nahi Hain To Kya Karein?
- IRIS portal par account banayein (agar pehle se nahi hai). Is ke liye CNIC aur mobile number chahiye hota hai.
- Income tax return file karein. Salary, business ya property kiraya, jo bhi aap ki income ho, us ka return banayein.
- Kuch din intezar karein aur dobara ATL check karein.
- Madad lein. Agar return samajh nahi aata to kisi bharose ke tax consultant se kaam karwayein.
- Property deal tab tak rokein, jab tak naam list mein na aa jaye. Is se aap ka bohat paisa bach sakta hai.
Property Khareedne Walon Ke Liye Zaroori Checklist
- Seller ka ATL status deal se pehle khud check karein.
- Apna status bhi check karein, bhale hi aap sirf buyer hon.
- DC rate aur FBR value dono dekhein, kyunke tax inhi mein se zyada value par lagta hai.
- Registry se pehle tax ki raqam ka hisaab likhwa lein.
- Dealer ki baat par aankh band kar ke yaqeen na karein. SMS se khud 9966 par check karein, sirf 1 minute lagta hai.
Aam Ghaltiyan Jo Log Karte Hain
- Purana ATL screenshot dikhana. Status badalta rehta hai, is liye hamesha taaza check karein.
- Sirf NTN number par bharosa. Individual ke liye CNIC se check karna behtar hai.
- Return file karne ke baad turant deal kar lena. Pehle confirm karein ke naam list mein aa chuka hai.
- Provincial list ko federal list samajhna. PRA, SRB aur KPRA ki apni alag lists hain aur ye FBR ki ATL se mukhtalif hain.
