Property Tax in Rahim Yar Khan (TY 2026-27)
Rahim Yar Khan property tax guide TY 2026-27 - Model Town, Cantt, industrial FBR valuations, Section 236C/236K WHT, Section 7E, and Punjab stamp duty.
Rahim Yar Khan property transactions face the federal stack (Section 236C 3%/10% seller, Section 236K 3%/10.5% buyer, Section 7E above PKR 25M, Section 37(1A) CGT) plus Punjab stamp duty (1-3%) and PLRA registration. The city's fertilizer plants, sugar mills, and consumer-goods factories drive substantial industrial-property flow, especially along the Sadiqabad and Khanpur roads.
FBR's Rahim Yar Khan valuation table places Model Town and City Centre at the top, followed by industrial-belt commercial rates around the fertilizer/sugar cluster. Inner-city zones sit lower per marla. Fertilizer plant and sugar mill transfers routinely cross Section 7E's PKR 25M threshold and trigger the deemed-income tax on top of regular transactional WHT.
Transfer tax in Rahim Yar Khan: worked example
Federal withholding on a property transfer is a percentage of the FBR-notified value - not the declared sale price - and the non-filer rate is more than triple the filer rate. These rates apply nationwide, including Rahim Yar Khan; the Rahim Yar Khan-specific variable is which valuation zone your property falls in.
| FBR value | Buyer 236K (filer 3%) | Buyer 236K (non-filer 10.5%) | Seller 236C (filer 3%) |
|---|---|---|---|
| Rs 10,000,000 | Rs 300,000 | Rs 1,050,000 | Rs 300,000 |
| Rs 25,000,000 | Rs 750,000 | Rs 2,625,000 | Rs 750,000 |
| Rs 50,000,000 | Rs 1,500,000 | Rs 5,250,000 | Rs 1,500,000 |
| Rs 100,000,000 | Rs 3,000,000 | Rs 10,500,000 | Rs 3,000,000 |
Section 236K (buyer) is 3% for filers / 10.5% for non-filers; Section 236C (seller) is 3% for filers / 10% for non-filers of the FBR-notified value. Property above PKR 25M FBR value also falls under Section 7E deemed-income tax. Rates are national; Rahim Yar Khan valuation zones set the base value the percentages apply to.
How a property transfer is taxed in Rahim Yar Khan
