ISLAMABAD: In a significant development, integrated remittance gateways authorized by the State Bank of Pakistan (SBP) have been designated as key financial entities, granting them the authority to offer instantaneous access to data and information pertaining to economic transactions. This access is extended to the Federal Board of Revenue (FBR), marking a crucial collaboration between financial institutions and tax authorities to enhance real-time monitoring and oversight of economic activities.
In a recent announcement, the Federal Board of Revenue (FBR) took a significant step by releasing a comprehensive list of integrated organizations. This inclusive list encompasses various agencies, authorities, institutions, and organizations outlined in section 175A of the Income Tax Ordinance. These entities are slated to be seamlessly integrated with the FBR’s cutting-edge “real-time accessed data analysis repository (RADAR).”
