The Federal Board of Revenue (FBR) has sealed two restaurants for issuing fake sales receipts in Islamabad.
The restaurants were identified using point-of-sale (POS) tracking software.
As a result of their fraudulent activities, both restaurants were sealed and imposed a fine of Rs 500,000 each.
FBR action
Starting next month, the scheme will expand nationwide, rewarding customers who report fraudulent invoices through the Tax Asaan application – a smart application to facilitate taxpayers of Pakistan.
Upon verification, FBR will directly transfer cash rewards to informants’ bank accounts, while businesses found involved in issuing fake sales receipts will be sealed immediately.
