Bahria Town's property market is high-value and constantly in motion — plots, houses and commercial units bought, sold and transferred regularly, often by owners who live overseas. IMAAR Associates handles the capital gains tax, advance tax and rental income side of that activity, plus non-resident return filing for owners who aren't in Pakistan to manage it themselves.
Bahria Town generates more property transactions per resident than most of the areas we serve — plot sales, house purchases, transfers between family members, and possession changing hands on units still being developed. Every one of those transactions has a tax consequence, and every one is now visible to FBR through property registry and bank data. We work through the transaction side first, then the ongoing filing.
Capital gains tax on plot and house sales, computed on your holding period, acquisition basis and filer status under the current Finance Act — including the changed post-Section 7E landscape under Finance Bill 2026.
Advance tax under sections 236C and 236K applies at a materially higher rate to non-filers on both the seller's and buyer's side — we get your Active Taxpayer List status confirmed before a transfer date, not after.
Non-resident return filing, Certificate of Residence matters and filer status maintained remotely, coordinated through IMAAR International, our global division — see our USA services if you also have US-side tax obligations as an overseas owner.
Rental income taxed under Income from Property, with admissible deductions applied and your return reconciled against the rent FBR already sees through tenancy and bank data.
Corporate and business income tax filing for commercial and developer-side entities operating in Bahria Town's commercial sectors.
Where a transfer involves an inheritance question or a dispute over title or possession, our legal division's property lawyer handles it alongside the tax side.
Owning in Bahria Town while living abroad doesn't exempt you from Pakistani tax on that property, and it often means a higher-stakes filing: larger transaction values, less day-to-day visibility into what's being withheld, and a Certificate of Residence sometimes needed to avoid double taxation. We run this entirely by email and video call — no need to travel for a filing that can be handled from wherever you are.
On your holding period, acquisition date and filer status under the current Finance Act. With Section 7E's deemed-income tax abolished under Finance Bill 2026, the calculation for many Bahria Town sellers has changed — we compute your exact liability rather than estimate it.
Advance tax under sections 236C and 236K is charged at a materially higher rate to non-filers on both sides of a property transaction. Getting you onto the Active Taxpayer List before your transfer date avoids paying that higher rate unnecessarily.
Yes — non-resident returns, filer status and Certificate of Residence matters are handled through IMAAR International, our global division, entirely by email and video call.
As Income from Property, with admissible deductions at current Finance Act rates. FBR increasingly cross-matches tenancy and bank data, so we make sure the declared rent reconciles.
