About the SME Tax Calculator Pakistan 2026-27

Estimate tax under the special regime available to eligible manufacturing small and medium enterprises. Choose the category by turnover and the calculator shows both routes: normal tax on taxable income, or final tax on gross turnover. Because the final tax option is irrevocable for three tax years once selected, the calculator shows both figures together so the comparison is visible before the election is made.

Common questions

Who qualifies as an SME for tax purposes?

The special regime is for a manufacturer registered with FBR whose annual business turnover does not exceed Rs. 250 million. Category 1 covers turnover up to Rs. 100 million and Category 2 covers the range above that up to the Rs. 250 million ceiling.

Should I choose normal tax or final tax?

Final tax on turnover is usually better for a high-margin business and worse for a thin-margin or loss-making one, because it is charged on turnover regardless of profit. Compare both figures at your actual margin, which is why the calculator shows them together.

Can I switch back after electing final tax?

No. The election for the final tax regime is irrevocable for three tax years, so model the decision across all three years rather than the current one alone.

What happens if turnover exceeds Rs. 250 million?

The enterprise falls out of the SME regime and is taxed under the normal corporate or business provisions from that tax year. Eligibility should be re-tested each year rather than assumed.
