Story details
The Federal Board of Revenue's Circular No. 3 of 2026-27, dated 30 September, extended the filing date to 15 October 2026 for people required to submit their income-tax returns by 30 September. The board said it acted after receiving requests from trade bodies and tax bar associations. Pakistan's state broadcaster reported the extension on 1 October.
The circular invokes section 214A of the Income Tax Ordinance, 2001. Its wording limits the extension to people whose returns were due on 30 September; it does not announce a revised date for other taxpayer groups or other tax obligations.

HB 2240 would reshape the pension board, standardise gratuity payments and establish a scheme fund; the official report gives a conflicting sitting date.
