Federal Minister for Finance and Revenue, Shaukat Tarin, chaired a meeting here at the Finance Division with Managing Director / CEO Pakistan Stock Exchange Mr. Farrukh H. Khan to review proposals for Federal Budget 2021-22. Adviser to PM on Austerity and Institutional Reforms Dr. Ishrat Hussain, SAPM on Finance and Revenue Dr. Waqar Masood, Chairman FBR and Secretary Finance Division were also present during the meeting.

MD, Pakistan Stock Exchange (PSX) gave a detailed presentation on the huge impact of stock markets on wealth creation and mobilization of capital. He said that a broad-based capital market helps to achieve important economic and social objectives like increasing the number of tax payers, optimizing savings and investment rates, and reducing wealth inequalities. Tax measures are an important policy tool to increase investments and savings in the economy and to stay competitive with other markets.

Farrukh Khan, MD PSX submitted proposals to align rates of capital gain tax on disposal of securities in line with regional practices, rationalization of tax rates for companies listed on the stock exchange, enhanced tax credit for listed small and medium enterprises, unlocking the potential of private funds and many other suggestions that will help broadening the tax base/ revenue collection.
