ISLAMABAD: Prime Minister has instructed the Federal Board of Revenue (FBR) to expedite its reform initiatives aimed at enhancing tax collection and improving the overall efficiency of the tax system. This directive comes as part of the government’s broader strategy to stabilize the economy and address fiscal challenges.

The Prime Minister emphasized the importance of timely implementation of these reforms during a recent meeting with FBR officials.
