Corporate Tax Obligations for Private Limited Companies

A private limited company registered with SECP is a separate legal entity for tax purposes. It must obtain its own NTN, file annual income tax returns, have accounts audited by a chartered accountant, file monthly withholding tax statements, and comply with sales tax obligations if applicable. Non-compliance results in penalties and can trigger FBR notices.
