DHA Phase 2 Extension and the surrounding blocks are known for compact houses, apartment buildings and a dense commercial zone with offices, eateries and clinics. Tenants, small business owners and landlords make up most of our clients from this area.
A Commercial Hub of Small Businesses
Phase 2 Extension has a high concentration of small offices, salons, cafes and consultancies. Many are run by first-time entrepreneurs who register with FBR but forget the Sindh Revenue Board. If the business provides taxable services in Sindh, SRB registration and monthly returns are required once the threshold is crossed.
Landlords of Small Apartments
Owners of one or two small flats in the area often let them to young professionals. Rent from individuals usually arrives without tax deducted, so the landlord pays the whole tax through the return or quarterly advance tax. A simple rent register avoids surprises.
Freelancers Working from Rented Flats
Phase 2 Extension attracts freelancers and remote workers. Their foreign receipts, platform statements and home office costs need to be organised for the return, and a filer status helps when banks process foreign payments.
| Who | Main obligation |
|---|---|
| Cafe or salon | FBR return and SRB returns |
| Small landlord | Rent declared, tax paid with return |
| Freelancer | Foreign receipts and expenses declared |
How We Help
We register businesses with SRB where needed, prepare monthly returns and file the annual income tax return, all remotely.
Moving In and Out of the Area
Phase 2 Extension has a high turnover of tenants. When you move, update your address on IRIS so notices reach you, and keep the old tenancy agreement with your records. If you paid a large security deposit, it is an asset in your wealth statement until it is returned, and its refund explains the cash you receive back.

Frequently Asked Questions
Does a small cafe in DHA need SRB registration?
If it provides restaurant or other taxable services in Sindh above the threshold, yes. SRB registration is separate from FBR.
My tenant is an individual and deducts no tax. What do I pay?
You pay the tax on rent yourself, through quarterly advance tax if required, and settle the balance with the return.
Can freelancers in DHA file without visiting an office?
Yes. Platform statements, bank certificates and CNIC are shared online and the return is filed on IRIS.
