The Federal Board of Revenue has intensified its Litigation Management System, yielding substantial results in its legal pursuit of pending revenue cases.

In a major development, the Islamabad High Court has ruled in favour of the revenue in cases collectively amounting to 36.14 billion rupees over the past week.

These include three significant tax disputes cases including M/s Bahria Town (Pvt) Ltd, where the Islamabad High Court upheld revenue claims amounting to 26.446 billion rupees.

These cases were pending in different appellate foras for the last two and half years.

Also, two other corporate cases worth Rs. 9.7 billion were also decided in favour of FBR by the Islamabad High Court.

One case was pending in different courts over the last nine years while the other one was pending litigation over three years.

More than 3 billion rupees have already been recovered in these cases while FBR is proactively pursuing recovery of the remaining amount, reinforcing its commitment to ensuring compliance and accountability.

The Federal Board of Revenue has been vigorously pursuing litigation to resolve long-standing cases tied up in higher courts.

Hundreds of billion rupees in revenue have been stuck in litigation for years, posing challenges to national revenue collection. However, with a more focused and strategic approach to legal follow-ups and representation, the FBR is witnessing major breakthroughs.

These successes are a direct result of judicial reforms in the shape of establishment of constitutional benches in the Supreme Courts and High Courts and reflect the commitment of the government under the leadership of the Prime Minister, ably assisted by the Attorney General and Chairman Federal Board of Revenue.
