The MDTF funded Balochistan GPP project continues to help increase effectiveness of Sales Tax collection in Balochistan. These efforts have translated… to a fourfold increase in STS collection from PKR 2.2 Billion in 2015 to PKR 8.6 billion in 2019, surpassing the annual target of PKR 2.75 billion. The number of registered STS taxpayers has also risen from 158 in 2016/17 to 3,514 in 2019/20. With the Project’s support, the Balochistan Revenue Authority (BRA) has:(i) developed ICT capacity for tax collection; (ii) strengthened taxpayer education; (iii) tax administration and capacity building, and iv) developed HR strategy.
