Despite some users attempting to delete incriminating posts, sources in the Federal Board of Revenue (FBR) maintain that the agency already possesses the necessary data as it intensifies its crackdown on individuals flaunting extravagant lifestyles on social media while declaring low taxable income.
According to sources, those living luxuriously yet paying minimal taxes will now face strict scrutiny. FBR officials warned that individuals who regularly post evidence of lavish spending, including foreign trips, luxury cars, designer clothing, and high-end events, should think twice before sharing such content online.
The tax authority is actively monitoring over 100,000 social media accounts across multiple platforms to identify discrepancies between declared income and visible expenditure.
Sources confirmed that the FBR has prepared four new tax evasion cases against social media users from Rawalpindi, Lahore, Bahawalpur, and Islamabad. “In all cases, the declared income and the visible level of spending do not match,” an FBR source said.
The crackdown has also extended to the son of a prominent politician from South Punjab, whose case has reportedly been finalized. Once investigations are completed, these cases will be submitted to the relevant courts for legal action.
According to FBR sources, the agency’s Intelligence and Investigation Directorate is leading the nationwide operation, preparing an average of three to four tax evasion cases daily. Officials expect the first wave of results from this campaign to emerge within a month.
To verify undeclared wealth, the FBR is also collecting expense data from wedding halls, dress designers, and beauty salons to track spending on major social events.
Good decision by government for these so called influencers.
You mean fbr can’t do anything on the leaders lol
Toothless
First step to stop unnecessary n fake class consciousness being spread in our society by these illiterate, unawared and ignorant influencers that are damaging our new gen psychologically .
Stricter actions should be taken against these people n there should be a check on kind of content these people upload to creat complexex in young guys.
Thank you FBR!
Question is … why should someone oay even a penny to this corrupt system. What does he get in return… for paying exorbitant taxes. Is Government or military answerable to tax payer… people have no rights… I think people should avoid these taxes at all cost.
Then don’t criticize the Government when you don’t pay taxes.
Sir you sleep in peace…. we had a four day furious war with India just by knowing it through tv

If they are rich then why are living in Pakistan with such wealth why not help the country to grow by paying taxes if you don’t want to pay taxes then live somewhere else like Dubai as what’s the point living with such wealth in Pakistan that has more poor people than rich and regardless how Pakistan it is now it’s better to have a country that Pakistanis call home not fighting for freedom like Gaza else struggle would be worse if not for the Pakistan Military Peace out.✌️😐
