Property Tax in Okara (TY 2025-26)
Okara property tax guide TY 2025-26 — Civil Lines, Cantt, dairy-belt FBR valuations, Section 236C/236K WHT, Section 7E, Punjab stamp duty, PLRA registry.
Okara property transactions follow the federal stack (236C 3%/10%, 236K 3%/10.5%, 7E above PKR 25M, 37(1A) CGT within five years) plus Punjab stamp duty (1-3%) and PLRA registration. The city's livestock, dairy-processing, and grain-market economy drives both commercial and agro-belt deal flow, especially along the GT Road and Renala Khurd road industrial corridors.
FBR's Okara valuation table places Civil Lines and Cantonment at the top, followed by GT Road commercial-belt rates and inner-city zones at lower per-marla rates. Grain market and dairy processing unit transfers along the city periphery transact under separate commercial-zone valuations distinct from residential rate cards. Few Okara residential properties cross Section 7E's PKR 25M threshold.
Frequently asked questions
How much WHT on Okara property purchase?
Section 236K — 3% (filer) or 10.5% (non-filer) of FBR-notified value, collected by the PLRA Sub-Registrar or Cantt Board at transfer.
Are grain markets covered by 7E?
Commercial grain-market property aggregations may cross PKR 25M FBR value and trigger Section 7E. Most individual storage units fall below the threshold.
Is Okara Cantt or Civil Lines pricier?
Cantt and Civil Lines run close on per-marla rates and lead the Okara valuation table. GT Road commercial-belt rates apply to industrial transfers separately.
