Looking for tax consultants in Lahore who can keep up with Punjab's pace?

Same-day onboarding, in-person hearings on request.
Lahore's problem is where a service is rendered, not whether it is taxable
Lahore is a services economy — IT houses, agencies, consultancies, clinics, restaurants, logistics brokers — and that puts almost every local business into the Punjab Revenue Authority's net at a standard 16%. The registration itself is routine. What is not routine is deciding which province gets the tax.
A Lahore agency with a client in Karachi, a Lahore IT firm delivering to a Sindh bank, a Punjab-registered transporter running a Sindh leg: each of these is a live question about where the service was rendered and therefore which authority is owed. PRA and SRB both assert jurisdiction in overlapping situations, and businesses caught in the middle get assessed twice for the same revenue. We see it constantly, and it is rarely resolved by paying whoever asked first.
The defensible position comes from contract terms, place of performance and consistent treatment across returns — decided deliberately at the outset rather than argued at assessment. Where a double demand has already been raised, there is a path through it, but it is considerably cheaper to have structured the contracts properly in the first place.
The second Lahore-specific issue is reduced-rate schedules. Punjab applies cut rates to several categories — certain restaurant transactions, some IT and e-commerce services — conditional on payment channel and on not claiming input tax. Businesses routinely either miss the reduced rate entirely or claim it while also claiming input, which is the fastest way to lose it on audit.
Provincial authority for Lahore: PRA
Services rendered in Punjab are taxed by the Punjab Revenue Authority at a standard rate of 16%, separately from federal sales tax on goods collected by FBR. Most Lahore service businesses need both registrations.
